研究目的
Reviewing the basic results obtained so far on LC/LiNbO3 hybrid structures with the aim of making the point and investigating further possible configurations.
研究成果
The combination of LiNbO3 and LC has demonstrated to be fruitful and promising for optofluidic applications and light-induced defect generation in LC films. Further investigations are needed to explore different crystallographic orientations and LC with low ionic content.
研究不足
The study is limited by the specific configurations of LC cells and the properties of the LiNbO3 substrates used. The response time and field values are influenced by the iron concentration and reduction degree of the crystals.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the use of liquid crystal cells based on lithium niobate substrates to explore the effects of the bulk photovoltaic effect and pyroelectric properties on liquid crystal behavior.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The samples include LC cells with LiNbO3 substrates, both z-cut and with different iron concentrations and reduction degrees.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The equipment includes a cw green laser, LiNbO3:Fe crystals, and LC materials like 6CHBT and 8CB.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The experiments involve pump-probe techniques to measure phase shifts and observe defect generation in LC films.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The phase shift is calculated from the ratio of transmitted light intensities, and the electric field is evaluated from the measured phase shift.
