Liquid crystals and novel gain materials for thin-film photonic devices

<p>This thesis describes work to create a variety of thin-film photonic devices based upon liquid crystalline materials. Firstly, a variety of liquid crystal phases are polymer- templated by combining a liquid crystalline material with photo-polymerisable reactive mesogens. Upon photo-curing,...
