Enhancement of Birefringence in Reduced Graphene Oxide Doped Liquid Crystal

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
We investigated the effect of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) doping on the birefringence of 5CB liquid crystal (LC). The characteristics of the synthesized rGO and LC-rGO composite with different rGO concentrations were analyzed by atomic force microscopy,

An impact-insensitive fiber optic current transformer based on polarization maintaining photonic crystal fiber delay coil

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
When the polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) delay coil of a fiber optic current transformer (FOCT) is impacted, external forces on the optical fibers and change of their birefringence may lead to extra phase errors during the propagation of optical ...

Imaging polarimetry for the determination of stress constraint in transparent solids

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2010
Using a Mueller matrix polarimeter based on liquid crystal cells [1] and the forward polar decomposition [2], we study the evolution of the birefringence property induced by an increasing compression of a Plexiglas sample.

Long-Time Relaxation of Stress-Induced Birefringence of Microcrystalline Alkali Halide Crystals

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Alkali halide single crystals are most commonly used as the diluent matrix in the tablet method or disk technique for spectroscopic measurements. However, stress-induced birefringence (SIB) of alkali halides as well as intrinsic birefringence manifest ...

From Photoalignment to Structured Light: Liquid Crystal Platforms for Beam Shaping and Complex Wavefronts

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photoaligned and photopatterned liquid crystal platforms provide programmable control of optical phase, polarization, and spin‐orbit interactions, enabling compact generation of structured light and complex wavefronts. This review highlights how tailored molecular orientations transform simple beams into designed optical fields, opening versatile ...

Measurement of plasma current in Tokamaks using an optical fibre reflectometry technique

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
An optical time-domain reflectometer sensitive to the polarization of light is proposed for the measurement of plasma current in the Tore Supra fusion reactor. The measurement principle relies on the Faraday effect i.e.
