Electrically tunable total reflection of light by oblique helicoidal cholesteric
Olena S. Iadlovska, Kamal Thapa, Mojtaba Rajabi +3
An oblique helicoidal state of a cholesteric liquid crystal (ChOH) is capable of continuous change of the pitch P in response to an applied electric field. Such a structure reflect…
Electro-optic switching of dielectrically negative nematic through nanosecond electric modification of order parameter (NEMOP)
Bing-xiang Li, Volodymyr Borshch, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +2
We present experimental studies of nanosecond electric modification of the order parameter (NEMOP) in a variety of nematic materials with negative dielectric anisotropy. The study…
Optical trapping, manipulation, and 3D imaging of disclinations in liquid crystals and measurement of their line tension
Ivan I. Smalyukh, Bohdan I. Senyuk, Sergij V. Shiyanovskii +4
We demonstrate optical trapping and manipulation of defects and transparent microspheres in nematic liquid crystals (LCs). The three-dimensional director fields and positions of th…
