Dual Role of Beam Polarization and Power in Nematic Liquid Crystals: A Comprehensive Study of TE- and TM-Beam Interactions
Optical spatial solitons are self-guided wave packets that maintain their transverse profile due to the self-focusing effect of light. In nematic liquid crystals (NLC), such light beams, called nematicons, can be induced by two principal mechanisms: light-induced reorientation of the elongated molec...
