Orientation of optically trapped nonspherical birefringent particles [PDF]
, 2006 While the alignment and rotation of microparticles in optical traps have received increased attention recently, one of the earliest examples has been almost totally neglected the alignment of particles relative to the beam axis, as opposed to about the ...

Detection of Vacuum Birefringence with Intense Laser Pulses
, 2004 We propose a novel technique that promises hope of being the first to directly detect a polarization in the quantum electrodynamic (QED) vacuum. The technique is based upon the use of ultra-short pulses of light circulating in low dispersion optical ...

Monitoring the Etching Process of Hi-Bi Fiber Through a Fiber Loop Mirror
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2017 A method for monitoring the etching process of Hi-Bi fiber is proposed and demonstrated. The birefringence of the etching fiber is accurately calculated by tracking the shift of the interference spectrum in a high-birefringence fiber loop mirror ...

Highly birefringent, low-loss liquid crystals for terahertz applications
APL Materials, 2013 With growing interest in switchable devices for the THz frequency range, there is a strong demand for liquid crystals (LC) exhibiting both a high birefringence and a low absorption. We present the refractive index and absorption coefficient of the liquid

Magnetic Faraday rotation in lossy photonic structures
, 2009 Magnetic Faraday rotation is widely used in optics and MW. In uniform magneto-optical materials, this effect is very weak. One way to enhance it is to incorporate the magnetic material into a high-Q optical resonator.
