Cholesteryl Dichlorobenzoate serves as a critical component in liquid crystal mixtures for tunable laser systems and reflective displays due to its helical twisting power (HTP) and broad mesophase range. Researchers employ it in electro-optic modulators and smart window technologies to study light polarization effects. It is also investigated for potential use in biosensors and chiral dopant formulations for advanced optical materials.
