Microdroplet Actuation via Light Line Optoelectrowetting (LL-OEW)
Meanwhile, electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) is a well-known phenomenon, even often exploited in active micro-optics to change the curvature of microdroplet lenses or in analytical chemistry with digital microfluidics (DMF, lab on a chip 2.0) to move ...

Nano-imprinted subwavelength gratings as polarizing beamsplitters
Polarizing beamsplitters have numerous applications in optical systems, such as systems for freeform surface metrology. They are classically manufactured from birefringent materials or with stacks of dielectric coatings. We present a binary subwavelength-

All-optical switch based on liquid-crystal infiltrated photonic bandgap fiber in transverse configuration [PDF]
We demonstrate optically controlled switching in a photonic bandgap fiber filled with liquid crystal using transverse coupling geometry. Fiber samples made from silica and lead silicate are studied.

Accurate Control of Surface Modes in a Hollow-Core Photonic Bandgap Fiber
The abrupt termination of periodic structures in hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber (HC-PBF) cladding introduces surface modes (SMs). This results in a high loss and small available bandwidth.
