The present invention relates to mesogenic, cross-linkable mixtures comprising (i) a cross-linkable liquid crystalline host compound comprising at least one cross-linkable liquid crystalline compound, and (ii) at least one chiral or achiral rod shaped additive component, wherein said additive component has a rigid core and comprises at least two fused or linked, optionally substituted, non-aromatic, aromatic, carbocyclic or heterocyclic groups, and also comprises at least one optionally substituted alkyl residue, and at least one polymerizable group and wherein the additive component has a transition temperature to the isotropic state of 40°C or lower. The invention also relates to the novel chiral or achiral rod-shaped additive compounds used for the preparation of these mixtures, to mixtures according to the invention in form of an elastomer, polymer gel, polymer network or polymer film, to polymer networks and liquid crystalline polymer films prepared from these mixtures and to optical or electrooptical components comprising polymer networks and liquid crystalline polymer films prepared from such mixtures. Further, the invention relates to the use of the chiral or achiral rod shaped compounds as components of a cross-linkable liquid crystalline mixture in the production of orientated liquid crystalline polymers, to liquid crystalline mixtures comprising these compounds, to liquid crystalline polymers and liquid crystalline polymer networks prepared from such liquid crystalline mixtures, and to liquid crystalline devices comprising these compounds.

Compensation of a liquid crystal display can be achieved using a compensation structure, having, in the following order: a) a first o-plate (412); b) a first retarder (414); c) a liquid crystal cell (402); d) a second retarder (418); and e) a second o-plate (416). The first and second retarders can be c-plates or biaxial retarders.

The liquid crystal switchable color filter switches between three color bands and is preferably used for time-sequential color devices, as for example projection devices, direct view displays and video cameras. The color filter employs circularly polarizing selective reflection bands of at least four cholesteric filters (89, 91, 93, 95) together with three liquid crystal switches (81, 83, 85) and related retarder layers. Between the first and the second as well as between the third and the fourth cholesteric filter an additional half-wave plate (111, 113) is provided, which makes it possible to use cholesteric filters having all the same handedness. Furthermore, for the blocking state of a color band the optic axis of the corresponding liquid crystal switch is parallel or perpendicular to the polarization direction. This concept simplifies production and still exhibits excellent properties for the color switch. Moreover, it advantageously allows overlapping color transmission bands thus improving the light efficiency.
