Abstract:
Liquid crystal (LC)-based adaptive optics are important for information processing, optical interconnections, photonics, integrated optics, and optical communications due to their tunable optical properties. In this dissertation, we describe novel liquid crystal photonic devices and their fabrication methods. The devices presented include inhomogeneous polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC), polymer network liquid crystals (PNLC) and phase-separated composite film (PSCOF). Liquid crystal/polymer composites could exist in different forms depending on the fabrication conditions. In Chap. 3, we

Abstract:
In the past decade, great research effort was inspired by the need to realise active optical functionalities in silicon, in order to develop the full potential of silicon as a photonic platform. In this thesis we explore the possibility of achieving tunable delay and optical gain in silicon, taking advantage of the unique dispersion capabilities of photonic crystals. To achieve tunable optical delay, we adopt a wavelength conversion and group velocity dispersion approach in a miniaturised engineered slow light photonic crystal waveguide. Our scheme is equivalent to a two-step indirect photonic

Abstract:
Nano-emitters are the new generation of laser devices. A photonic-crystal cavity, which highly confines light in small volumes, in combination with quantum-dots can enhance the efficiency and lower the threshold of this device. The practical realisation of a reliable, electrically pumped photonic-crystal laser at room-temperature is, however, challenging. In this project, a design for such a laser was established. Its properties are split up into electrical, optical and thermal tasks that are individually investigated via various device simulations. The resulting device performance showed that

Abstract:
Liquid crystals (LCs) are important materials for flat panel display and photonic devices. Most LC devices use electrical field-, magnetic field-, or temperature-induced refractive index change to modulate the incident light. Molecular constituents, wavelength, and temperature are the three primary factors determining the liquid crystal refractive indices: ne and no for the extraordinary and ordinary rays, respectively. In this dissertation, we derive several physical models for describing the wavelength and temperature effects on liquid crystal refractive indices, average refractive index, an

Abstract:
Cette thèse est consacrée au développement de dispositifs accordables sur la base de cristaux photoniques unidimensionnels qui peuvent supporter des ondes de surface de Bloch (BSW). Tout d'abord, nous explorons les possibilités de contrôler la direction de propagation des BSW par le biais de la polarisation de la lumière incidente. Dans ce cas, nous gravons sur le dessus du cristal photonique 1D des structures passives de type réseau, qui permettent à la fois de coupler la lumière incidente aux BSWs et de se comporter comme une lame séparatrice ultracompacte contrôlée par la polarisation lumin

Abstract:
L'information est devenue le bien le plus précieux au monde. Ce mouvement vers la nouvelle ère de l'information a été propulsé par la capacité à transmettre l'information plus rapidement, à la vitesse de la lumière. Il est donc apparu nécessaire de mener des recherches plus poussées pour contrôler plus efficacement les supports d'information. Avec les progrès réalisés dans ce secteur, la plupart des technologies actuelles de contrôle de la lumière se heurtent à certains obstacles tels que la taille et la consommation d'énergie et sont conçues pour être passives ou sont limitées technologiqueme
