Microstructured liquid crystal film for automotive glass

A liquid crystal film for automotive glass, the liquid crystal film comprising:

• a first base layer;
• a first conductive layer;
• a microstructured liquid crystal layer;
• a second conductive layer;
• and
• a second base layer, wherein:
• the microstructured liquid crystal layer is disposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer,
• the first base layer and the second base layer are oppositely disposed,
• the first conductive layer is attached to the first base layer,
• the second conductive layer is attached to the second base layer,
• the microstructured liquid crystal layer comprises:
• a bottom plate;
• a partition plate;
• and
• a liquid crystal mixture, and wherein:
• the partition plate comprises sidewalls vertically arranged on the bottom plate, and the bottom plate is attached to the second conductive layer,
• the partition plate divides a space between the bottom plate and the first conductive layer into a plurality of polygonal receiving spaces, and
• the liquid crystal mixture is positioned in the plurality of polygonal receiving spaces,
• wherein a top surface of the partition plate and the liquid crystal mixture directly contacts the first conductive layer,
• wherein a planar bottom surface of each of the plurality of polygonal receiving spaces is flat, and
• wherein the bottom plate is disposed between the liquid crystal mixture and the second conductive layer and between the partition plate and the second conductive layer.
