Several authors [1-5] have studied the effect of a constant shear rate (steady state condition) on the planar structure of a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC). In these cases the shearing is obtained by constant rotation of a rheogoniometer. The main conclusions are: 1) the CLC layers can slip freely, and a uniform helical axis tilt is produced at low shear rate. 2) a broken structure is induced...
متن کاملEnhanced nonlinear optics in photonic-crystal microcavities.
Focus Serial: Frontiers of Nonlinear Optics Nonlinear photonic-crystal microresonators offer unique fundamental ways of enhancing a variety of nonlinear optical processes. This enhancement improves the performance of nonlinear optical devices to such an extent that their corresponding operation powers and switching times are suita...
متن کاملElectro-optics of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal displays
Electro-optics of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal displays BP LCDs is analyzed and validated experimentally. A numerical model for characterizing and optimizing the electro-optical and display properties of BP LCDs in in-plane switching and fringe field switching cells is developed. The simulated voltage-dependent transmittance curves agree well with the measured results. To lower ...
متن کاملStructured Polymer/Liquid Crystal for Switchable Diffractive and Micro Optics
Polymer dispersed liquid crystals are generally described as a system with an isotropic liquid crystal (LC) droplet distribution in a polymer matrix. Using masked ultraviolet light and/or applied electric field a structured polymer/LC phase separation can be achieved. One technological advantage is the potential for integrated polymer/LC devices. This approach can be used to manufacture miniatu...
متن کاملElectro-optics of bipolar nematic liquid crystal droplets.
We directly visualize the response and relaxation dynamics of bipolar nematic liquid crystal droplets to an applied electric field E. Despite strong planar anchoring, there is no critical field for switching. Instead, upon application of E, the surface region first reorients, followed by movement of the disclinations and the bipolar axis. After removing E, elastic forces restore the drop to its...
