Abstract:
The electrically controlled birefringence of nematic liquid crystal BL-009 was measured by polarized interference method. The influence of LC absorption effect, the birefringence variation, is discussed in this paper. The experiments results showed the influence to birefringence is big in infrared region. Not only the birefringence value is greatly different with that of unconsidering absorption effect, but also the gradient changing of birefringence curves is obvious. Furthermore, the electrically controlled birefringences of two conditions are compared when the absorption coefficients of ord

The inscription regimes and formation mechanisms of form-birefringent microstructures inside nano-porous fused silica by tightly focused 1030- and 515-nm ultrashort laser pulses of variable energy levels and pulsewidths in the sub-filamentary regime were explored. Energy-dispersion X-ray micro-spectroscopy and 3D scanning confocal Raman micro-spectroscopy revealed the micro-tracks compacted by the multi-shot laser exposure with the nanopores hydrodynamically driven on a microscale to their periphery.

We compare reconstructed quantum state images of a birefringent sample using direct quantum state tomography and inverse numerical optimization technique. Qubits are used to characterize birefringence in a flat transparent plastic sample by means of polarization sensitive measurement using density matrices of two-level quantum entangled photons. Pairs of entangled photons are generated in a type-II nonlinear crystal. About half of the generated photons interact with a birefringent sample, and coincidence counts are recorded.

Organic molecules with π‐conjugated structure are known to exhibit significant birefringence effect owing to their unique electronic properties.

AbstractBirefringent crystals as an important optical anisotropic material play a crucial role in modulating the polarization state of light.

Remarkably, (C6N10H8)Pb2Br6 exhibits a significantly enhanced birefringence of ∆n = 0.42@550 nm, which is the largest among halide perovskites so far. Furthermore, its birefringence performance is robust in a wide temperature range of 300–440 K.
