Liquid-crystal-based terahertz tunable Solc filter.
A broadly tunable terahertz Solc-type birefringence filter is demonstrated. The first central passband frequency of the filter can be continuously tuned from 0.176 to 0.793 THz using magnetically controlled birefringence in nematic liquid crystals. The insertion loss of the present device is about 5 dB.
متن کاملElectrically tunable laser based on oblique heliconical cholesteric liquid crystal.
A cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) formed by chiral molecules represents a self-assembled one-dimensionally periodic helical structure with pitch [Formula: see text] in the submicrometer and micrometer range. Because of the spatial periodicity of the dielectric permittivity, a CLC doped with a fluorescent dye and pumped optically is capable of mirrorless lasing. An attractive feature of a CLC l...
متن کاملTunable optical metamaterial based on liquid crystal-gold nanosphere composite.
Effect of the surrounding anisotropic liquid crystal medium on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) exhibited by concentrated suspensions of gold nanospheres has been investigated experimentally and compared with the Mie scattering theory. The observed polarization-sensitive SPR and the red-shift in the SPR wavelength with increasing concentration of the gold nanospheres in the liquid crystal ma...
متن کاملUltrafast tunable optical delay line based on indirect photonic transitions.
We introduce the concept of an indirect photonic transition and demonstrate its use in a dynamic delay line to alter the group velocity of an optical pulse. Operating on an ultrafast time scale, we show continuously tunable delays of up to 20 ps, using a slow light photonic crystal waveguide only 300 μm in length. Our approach is flexible, in that individual pulses in a pulse stream can be cont...
متن کاملTunable - Focus Liquid Crystal Lens
Since liquid crystal (LC) was proposed for making a tunable lens, the LC based zoom lens has been studied extensively for machine vision, photonics, information processing and eye glasses. Various approaches for making LC tunable lenses exists. Among them three methods are presented in this seminar: flat LC spherical lenses, microlenses made of nanosized polymer dispersed LC and Fresnel type sw...
