Wavelength tuning of the photonic band gap of an achiral nematic liquid crystal filled into a chiral polymer scaffold

In this paper, we demonstrate electric field-induced wavelength tuning of the entire photonic band-gap of an achiral nematic liquid crystal (LC) filled into a chiral polymer scaffold. This chiral polymer scaffold has been formed by creating a template of a chiral nematic LC phase, which remarka...
