Electrically tunable holographic waveguide display based on holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal grating

In this Letter, we present an electrically tunable holographic waveguide display(HWD) based on two slanted holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal(HPDLC) gratings. Experimental results show that a see-through effect is obtained in the HWD that both the display light from HWD and the ambient light can be clearly seen simultaneously. By applying an external electric field, the output intensity of the display light can be modulated,which is attributed to the field-induced rotation of the liquid crystal molecules in the two HPDLC gratings.We also show that this electrically tunable performance enables the HWD to adapt to different ambient light conditions. This study provides some ideas towards the development of HWD and its application in augmented reality.     

基于全息液晶/聚合物光栅的分布反馈式激光器的波长调谐特性研究

首先制备了不同周期的染料掺杂全息液晶/聚合物光栅并进行激光抽运实验, 得到了激光器的调谐曲线,确定了激光器在574 nm到685 nm的谱带里均可以实现激光输出, 即激光器具有110 nm左右的可调谐范围. 之后, 通过温控仪控制样品的温度, 对周期为610 nm的染料掺杂全息液晶/聚合物光栅进行激光抽运, 探测不同温度下的输出激光光谱, 观察到随着温度由20℃升高到65℃, 激光器的中心波长由627.9 nm减小到623 nm, 产生了4.9 nm的波长蓝移.

物理给予我创新原动力

在科研实践中我深深体会到,物理是原创动力,没有物理思维只埋头技术很容易产生局限。我在给研究生们上课的时候深深感叹液晶显示器的结构设计,从液晶分子90°扭曲排列导入的旋光、到液晶弹性体连续性以及排列畸变弹性能的利用,从像素后薄膜晶体管TFT 的数十道光刻工艺到遮光黑矩阵的设计,其中物理模型之准确、数学计算之精细、所涉及学问之广泛,实在令人惊叹不已！在这样宏大的物理学面前,个人的力量显得如此柔弱渺小！然而正是物理带给全人类的智慧,将点点滴滴汇聚成河,推动文明进步的航船不断前行。物理包罗万象,从中可以汲取无尽的创新源泉。

Azimuthal anchoring of a nematic liquid crystal on a grooved interface with anisotropic polar anchoring

Zhang Y J et al.[Zhang Y J,Zhang Z D,Zhu L Z and Xuan L 2011 Liquid Cryst.38 355] investigated the effects of finite polar anchoring on the azimuthal anchoring energy at a grooved interface,in which polar anchoring was isotropic in the local tangent plane of the surface.In this paper,we investigate the effects of both isotropic and anisotropic polar anchoring on the surface anchoring energy in the frame of Fukuda et al.’s theory.The results show that anisotropic polar anchoring strengthens the azimuthal anchoring of grooved surfaces.In the one-elastic-constant approximation(K11 = K22 = K33 = K),the surface-groove-induced azimuthal anchoring energy is entirely consistent with the result of Faetti,and it reduces to the original result of Berreman with an increase in polar anchoring.Moreover,the contribution of the surface-like elastic term to the Rapini-Papoular anchoring energy is zero.

Retinal axial focusing and multi-layer imaging with a liquid crystal adaptive optics camera

With the help of adaptive optics(AO) technology, cellular level imaging of living human retina can be achieved.Aiming to reduce distressing feelings and to avoid potential drug induced diseases, we attempted to image retina with dilated pupil and froze accommodation without drugs. An optimized liquid crystal adaptive optics camera was adopted for retinal imaging. A novel eye stared system was used for stimulating accommodation and fixating imaging area. Illumination sources and imaging camera kept linkage for focusing and imaging different layers. Four subjects with diverse degree of myopia were imaged. Based on the optical properties of the human eye, the eye stared system reduced the defocus to less than the typical ocular depth of focus. In this way, the illumination light can be projected on certain retina layer precisely.Since that the defocus had been compensated by the eye stared system, the adopted 512 × 512 liquid crystal spatial light modulator(LC-SLM) corrector provided the crucial spatial fidelity to fully compensate high-order aberrations. The Strehl ratio of a subject with-8 diopter myopia was improved to 0.78, which was nearly close to diffraction-limited imaging. By finely adjusting the axial displacement of illumination sources and imaging camera, cone photoreceptors, blood vessels and nerve fiber layer were clearly imaged successfully.
