Light Reconfigurable Geometric Phase Optical Element with Multi-stable States
Xiao-Qian Wang, Alwin Ming-Wai Tam, Wei-Qiang Yang +9
We present the design methodology of a light reconfigurable geometric phase optical element with multi-stable diffraction efficiency states, enabled by a photoresponsive self-organ…
Enhanced Kerr effect in vertically aligned deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystals
E. P. Pozhidaev, A. K. Srivastava, Alexei D. Kiselev +5
We disclose the vertically aligned deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystal (VADHFLC) whose Kerr constant (~nm/V at ~nm) is one order of…
Direct femtosecond pulse compression with miniature-sized Bragg cholesteric liquid crystal
Liyan Song, Shenhe Fu, Yikun Liu +3
Direct compression of femtosecond optical pulses from a Ti:sapphire laser oscillator was realized with a cholesteric liquid crystal acting as a nonlinear 1D periodic Bragg grating.…
Orientational "Kerr effect" and phase modulation of light in deformed-helix ferroelectric liquid crystals with subwavelength pitch
Eugene P. Pozhidaev, Alexei D. Kiselev, Abhishek Kumar Srivastava +3
We study both theoretically and experimentally the electro-optical properties of vertically aligned deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystals (VADHFLC) with subwavelength pitch…
Electrically assisted light-induced gliding of nematic liquid-crystal easy axis at varying polarization azimuth of reorienting light: model and experiment
S. V. Pasechnik, A. V. Dubtsov, D. V. Shmeliova +4
The phenomenological torque balance model previously introduced to describe the electrically assisted light-induced gliding is generalized to study the reorientation dynamics of th…
Liquid crystal spatial-mode converters for the orbital angular momentum of light
Sergei Slussarenko, Bruno Piccirillo, Vladimir Chigrinov +2
We present a tunable liquid crystal device that converts pure orbital angular momentum eigenmodes of a light beam into equal-weight superpositions of opposite-handed eigenmodes and…
