The paper presents a review of results of studies in the field of PDLC material science and physics obtained during last few years and shows the main fields of interest in that subject. It covers an application of new polymers and liquid crystalline materials used to prepare those composites, modification of their properties by different inorganic and organic dopants as well as new optical properties. The evolution of scientific interest regarding PDLC composites in recent years is shown. Keywords: material science, composites, polymer-dispersed liquid crystals, optics, electrooptics.

Many sheared liquid crystalline materials (fibers, films and moldings) exhibit a fine banded microstructure when observed in the polarized light microscope. In some cases, for example Kevlar® fiber, the periodicity is close to the resolution limit of even the highest numerical aperture objectives. The periodic microstructure reflects a non-uniform alignment of the constituent molecules, and consequently is an indication that the mechanical properties will be less than optimal. Thus it is necessary to obtain quality micrographs for characterization, which in turn requires that fine detail should contribute significantly to image formation.It is textbook knowledge that the resolution achievable with a given microscope objective (numerical aperture NA) and a given wavelength of light (λ) increases as the angle of incidence of light at the specimen surface is increased. Stated in terms of the Abbe resolution criterion, resolution improves from λ/NA to λ/2NA with increasing departure from normal incidence.
