Localised polymer networks in chiral nematic liquid crystals for high speed photonic switching

Self-assembled periodic structures based upon chiralliquid crystalline materials have significant potential in the field of photonics ranging from fast-switching optoelectronic devices to low-threshold lasers. The flexoelectro-optic effect, which is observed in chiralnematic liquid crystals (LCs) wh...
