Phase Topology Stability of an Optical Vortex via an Electrically Controlled Twist‐Planar Oriented Liquid Crystal Fresnel Lens

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A simple and efficient method for determining the stability of optical vortices via Fourier transform using a conventional spherical lens is presented. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a practical approach to directly and unambiguously measure the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of a beam without altering an ...

CHROMATOGRAPHIC CHARACTERIZATION OF BEMACID ROT DYE COMPOUNDS FOLLOWING CERIOPORUS SQUAMOSUS BIOREMEDIATION [PDF]

Annals of the University of Oradea: Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork, 2019
Fungi mediated bioremediation of industrial wastewaters containing azo-dyes has been gaining increased attention in the last years. One of the downsizes of bioremediation of azo-dyes is the possibility of resulting degradation aromatic amines, following ...

Properties of the Broad-Range Nematic Phase of a Laterally Linked H-Shaped Liquid Crystal Dimer

, 2014
In search for novel nematic materials, a laterally linked H-shaped liquid crystal dimer have been synthesized and characterized. The distinct feature of the material is a very broad temperature range (about 50 oC) of the nematic phase, which is in ...

Halogen bonding enhances nonlinear optical response in poled supramolecular polymers [PDF]

, 2015
We demonstrate that halogen bonding strongly enhances the nonlinear optical response of poled supramolecular polymer systems. We compare three nonlinear optical chromophores with similar electronic structures but different bond-donating units, and show ...
