The liquid crystal institute
The Glenn H. Brown Liquid Crystal Institute (LCI) at Kent State University is a center of study for liquid crystal technology and education, blending basic and applied research on liquid crystals. This approach has resulted in technological advances and new applications such as display tablets, optical shutters, variable transmission windows, projection display devices, and flexible displays. Established in 1965, the institute is now directed by Dr. Hiroshi Yokoyama and is housed at KSU's Liquid Crystal and Materials Sciences building, completed in 1996.
