Liquid-crystal diffraction gratings using polarization holography alignment techniques
A method of patterning surfaces for liquid-crystal alignment using a polarization holography exposure on a linear photopolymerizable polymer alignment layer is demonstrated. Three configurations are demonstrated which include registered planar-periodic surface boundary conditions on both surfaces true polarization gratings , planar-periodic and uniform planary surface boundary conditions, and p...
متن کاملCalculation of the efficiency of polarization-insensitive surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid-crystal diffraction gratings.
A rigorous analysis is presented of the diffraction efficiency of a polarization-insensitive surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid-crystal (SSFLC) phase grating, taking full account of the internal structure of the ferroelectric liquid-crystal layer. When no field is applied, the twisted director profile in the relaxed state gives an optimum diffraction efficiency for a device thickness betwe...
متن کاملLiquid-Crystal-Cladding Fiber Bragg Gratings with Electrically Controllable Polarization-Dependent Characteristics
An electrically controllable fiber Bragg grating (FBG) with polarization-dependent characteristics is described. The optic axis of a liquid crystal (LC) can be rearrangeable by means of external electric fields, which results in the change of an effective refractive index of an LC. The reflectivity and Bragg wavelength of an LC-cladding FBG can be controlled according to the refractive index of...
متن کاملReflective liquid crystal polarization gratings with high efficiency and small pitch
We report our experimental success in realizing high efficiency liquid crystal polarization gratings (LCPGs) on reflective substrates, with periods as small as 2.2μm, enabling the largest switchable LCPG diffraction angles reported yet for red light. Moreover, these gratings retain nearly ideal electro-optical properties, including > 95% hologram efficiency, high polarization contrast, sub-mill...
متن کاملGraphene-based liquid crystal device.
Graphene is only one atom thick, optically transparent, chemically inert, and an excellent conductor. These properties seem to make this material an excellent candidate for applications in various photonic devices that require conducting but transparent thin films. In this letter, we demonstrate liquid crystal devices with electrodes made of graphene that show excellent performance with a high ...
