Anisotropy in Third-Order Nonlinear Optical Susceptibility of a Squarylium Dye in a Nematic Liquid Crystal

A squarylium dye is dissolved in 4-cyano-4＇-pentylbiphenyl （SCB） and oriented by sandwiching mixtures between two pieces of rubbed glass plates. The optical absorption spectra of the oriented squarylium dye-5CB layers exhibit high anisotropy. The third-order nonlinear optical responses and susceptibilities X^（3）e of squarylium dye in 5CB are measured with light polarizations parallel and perpendicular to the orientational direction by the resonant femtosecond degenerate four-wave mixing （DFWM） technique. Temporal profiles of the DFWM signal of the oriented squarylium dye-5CB layers with light polarizations parallel and perpendicular to the orientational direction are measured with a time resolution of 0.3ps （FWHM）, and are found to consist of two components, i.e., the coherent instantaneous nonlinear response and slow response due to the formation of excited molecules. A high anisotropic ratio of x^（3）e, 10.8 ：k 1.2, is observed for the oriented layers.     

Fast Optical Switching Using Oriented Cyanine Dye-Doped Nematic Liquid Crystal

A cyanine dye, 2-[7-（1,3-dihydro-1,3,3-trimethyl-2H-indol-2-ylidene）-1,3,5-heptatrienyl]-1,3,3-trimethyl-3H-indolium iodide （NK-125）, is doped in 4-cyano-4＇-pentylbiphenyl （5 CB）, and the mixture is sandwiched between two pieces of rubbed glass plates. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of the oriented NK-125-SCB layers are measured by the resonant femtosecond degenerate four-wave mixing （DFWM） technique at 760 nm. The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of one of the present samples is 5.5×10^-8 esu. The slow DFWM response of the NK-125-SCB layers due to a population grating is accelerated by the increasing laser power because of amplified spontaneous emission （ASE）. On the other hand, we do not observe a similar phenomenon for NK-125- polyethylene glycol （PEG-400）. Oriented NK-125 molecules in nematic liquid crystals must have very high ASE efficiency. Hence the population grating in a DFWM signal disappears within about 4 ps. It is expected that NK-125-SCB can be used as a material for very fast all-optical switching.     

Effect of Molecular Weight on Liquid Crystal Photoalignment by Photosensitive Polyester Containing Thrifluoromethyl Moieties

We investigate the liquid-crystal （LC） alignment direction on photoalignment films formed from photosensitive polyester containing thrifluoromethyl moieties （PPDA） with various molecular weights by crossed polarized optical microscopy. It is found that LC alignment behaviour changes with molecular weight of PPDA. The LC alignment on PPDA irradiated films with the highest molecular weight is homogeneous, while those with low and intermediate molecular weights are homeotropic. However, surface morphologies show weak dependence on molecular weight. The surfaces are smooth and there is no clear morphological anisotropy on these aligned films observed by an atomic force microscope. The surface energies of the irradiated films are also measured by using an indirect contact-angle method where both surface energy and its polar component, increase with increasing molecular weight. Different polar surface energies can be considered as a main reason for different alignment characteristics.     

液晶清亮点对光敏手性偶氮苯分子螺旋扭曲力常数的影响

本文主要研究了光敏手性偶氮苯分子Azo-o-Bi的螺旋扭曲力常数(β)及其变化量(Δβ)与液晶清亮点之间的关系。将光敏手性偶氮苯分子Azo-o-Bi与不同的向列相液晶主体E7,HTG135200-100,HNG715600-100配置成具有光敏性的胆甾相液晶,测量Azo-o-Bi分子在不同胆甾相液晶中的β值及Δβ值。通过分析不同胆甾相液晶的差热扫描量热(DSC)曲线,研究手性剂的β值及Δβ值与液晶清亮点间的关系。发现液晶的清亮点越高,手性剂的β值及Δβ值越大。这是由于液晶清亮点越高,其所对应的有序度参数越大,液晶分子排列的有序程度越高,分子间的相互作用力越强,从而导致光敏手性剂对向列相液晶产生的螺旋扭曲力及其变化量就越大。     

驱动信号频率对聚合物稳定胆甾相液晶网络形变的调控

聚合物稳定胆甾相液晶(PSCT),其动态响应源于液晶局部指向矢的重新排列。这个过程由介电耦合效应/自组装效应和聚合物网络形变来主导。通过调节驱动信号频率,可以控制聚合物网络形变。在一定范围内,增大驱动信号频率能抑制聚合物网络形变。降低聚合物网络形变程度和提高网络形变回复速度能有效地抑制器件的迟滞效应。结合PSCT的介电谱,初步探究了产生聚合物网络形变的原因。
