Based on the controlled scattering of light in the composite system, the device can achieve light transmission coefficients tunable from 1\% up to around 89\%. Simulation of the EO behavior indicates that the roughness of the polymer-liquid crystal interface is crucial for the optical performance of the device.</p>
