Novel Tunable Optical Properties of Liquid Crystals, Conjugated Molecules and Polymers in Nanoscale Periodic Structures as Photonic Crystals
摘要:
Tunability of optical properties such as transmission and reflection by temperature and applied voltage has been demonstrated in synthetic opals and inverse opals like three-dimensional photonic crystals infiltrated with liquid crystals, conjugated molecules and polymers, in accordance with theoretical calculation. A new type of tunability based on uncoupled mode in a two-dimensional photonic band gap influenced by the field-dependent anisotropy in liquid crystals has also been demonstrated theoretically. Spectral narrowing and lasing have been observed in these opals infiltrated with conducting polymers and fluorescent dyes like three-dimensional photonic crystal and fluorescent dye-doped cholesteric and ferroelectric liquid crystal as one-dimensional photonic crystal. These lasing wavelength can be controlled by the applied voltage. Laser emission was also realized with conducting polymer on a surface relief grating formed on an azo-polymer film by interference optical beam.
