Light propagation mechanism switching in a liquid crystal infiltrated microstructured polymer optical fibre

Rutkowska K. A., Milenko K., Chojnowska O., Dąbrowski R., Woliński T. R.

Opto-Electronics Review

2015

Vol. 23, No. 4

252-258

In this work studies on propagation properties of a microstructured polymer optical fibre infiltrated with a nematic liquid crystal are presented. Specifically, the influence of an infiltration method on the LC molecular alignment inside fibre air-channels and, thus, on light guidance is discussed. Switching between propagation mechanisms, namely the transition from modified total internal reflection (mTIR) to the photonic bandgap effect obtained by varying external temperature is also demonstrated.

Photo-alignment of liquid crystals in micro capillaries with point-by-point irradiation

Siarkowska A., Jóźwik M., Ertman S., Woliński T. R., Chigrinov V. G.

Opto-Electronics Review

A photo-alignment method for micro capillaries based on the SD-1 azo-dye is demonstrated. In this work a liquid-crystal molecules aligning layer is created by point-by-point irradiation of the azo-dye film by using an UV laser light. The method opens up new possibilities for an improved molecules’ orientation control in both glass- and polymer-based photonic liquid crystal fibres.
