Abstract: | The orientational photorefractive properties of photorefractive mesogenic composites have been investigated by means of two-beam coupling and degenerate four-wave mixing. Photorefractive mesogenic composites, consisting of low molar mass liquid crystals, polymer, and photoconductive sensitizer, constitute novel organic materials possessing high performance photoreractivity. The refractive index change was estimated on the basis of the theory of two-beam coupling and four-wave mixing, and large index modulation of over 0.01 was obtained. |
