Photonic eigenmodes and transmittance of finite-length 1D cholesteric liquid crystal resonators

Abstract Cholesteric liquid crystals exhibit a periodic helical structure that partially reflects light with wavelengths comparable to the period of the structure, thus performing as a one-dimensional photonic crystal. Here, we demonstrate a combined experimental and numerical study of light transmi...
