Wavelength-tuneable laser emission from stretchable chiral nematic liquid crystal gels via in situ photopolymerization

Stretchable liquid crystal laser gels are free-standing films with emission wavelengths that may be tuned by applying a mechanical strain. These laser gels offer potential for industrial applications such as micro-actuators and pressure sensors due to their small dimensions and suitability for solut...
