Photonic defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals.
We investigate defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals as photonic band gap materials. For normal incidence of light, cholesteric liquid crystals exhibit total reflection for the circular polarization with the same handedness as that of cholesteric helix. However, the other orthogonal component is completely transmitted. When we replace a thin layer of liquid crystal by an isotropic materia...
متن کاملDefect modes in multisection helical photonic crystals.
We examine defect modes in four-section helical hotonic crystals (HPCs) that comprise three twist defects located at the intersections. The three twist defects are introduced by a single angle phit , but they are quantified differently by the jump angles across the successive sections. The two defect modes are localized at the different defect sites and can be either coupled or uncoupled to eac...
متن کاملThermodielectric generation of defect modes in a photonic liquid crystal.
Photonic defect modes induced by in situ formation of an ill-defined defect layer is demonstrated in a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC). The local deformation of the one-dimensionally periodic helical structure is achieved by means of the thermodielectric effect, which alters the pitch in the middle of the cholesteric structure. The defect-mode peak in the photonic band gap appears in the trans...
متن کاملPhotonic defect modes in a cholesteric liquid crystal with a resonant nanocomposite layer and a twist defect.
We have studied spectral properties of a cholesteric liquid crystal with a combined defect consisting of a nanocomposite layer and a twist. The nanocomposite layer is made of metallic nanoballs dispersed in a transparent matrix and featuring effective resonant permittivity. A solution has been found for the transmission spectrum of circularly polarized waves in the structure. We have analyzed s...
متن کاملSpatial and electrical switching of defect modes in a photonic bandgap device with a polymer-dispersed liquid crystal defect layer.
This paper investigates the spectral properties of a one-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) containing an inhomogeneous polymer- dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) as a defect layer. Experimental results indicate that the voltage-induced reorientation of LC molecules between the light-scattering and transparent states in the PDLC enables the electrical tuning of the transmittance of defect-mode pea...
