Photonic defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals.
We investigate defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals as photonic band gap materials. For normal incidence of light, cholesteric liquid crystals exhibit total reflection for the circular polarization with the same handedness as that of cholesteric helix. However, the other orthogonal component is completely transmitted. When we replace a thin layer of liquid crystal by an isotropic materia...
متن کاملSpatial and electrical switching of defect modes in a photonic bandgap device with a polymer-dispersed liquid crystal defect layer.
This paper investigates the spectral properties of a one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) containing an inhomogeneous polymer- dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) as a defect layer. Experimental results indicate that the voltage-induced reorientation of LC molecules between the light-scattering and transparent states in the PDLC enables the electrical tuning of the transmittance of defect-mode pea...
متن کاملDefect modes in multisection helical photonic crystals.
We examine defect modes in four-section helical hotonic crystals (HPCs) that comprise three twist defects located at the intersections. The three twist defects are introduced by a single angle phit , but they are quantified differently by the jump angles across the successive sections. The two defect modes are localized at the different defect sites and can be either coupled or uncoupled to eac...
متن کاملDefect modes in one-dimensional photonic lattices.
Linear defect modes in one-dimensional photonic lattices are studied theoretically. For negative (repulsive) defects, various localized defect modes are found. The strongest confinement of the defect modes appears when the lattice intensity at the defect site is nonzero rather than zero. When launched at small angles into such a defect site of the lattice, a Gaussian beam can be trapped and und...
متن کاملTwo-color nonlinear localized photonic modes.
We analyze second-harmonic generation (SHG) at a thin effectively quadratic nonlinear interface between two linear optical media. We predict multistability of SHG for both plane and localized waves, and also describe two-color localized photonic modes composed of a fundamental wave and its second harmonic coupled together by parametric interaction at the interface.
