Description

<p>Liquid crystals (LCs), possessing both fluidity and optical anisotropic properties, exhibit interesting optical functions. In particular, homogeneously aligned dye-doped LCs change their molecular orientation by the incidence of a polarized laser beam, causing the self-focusing and phase modulation effects and resulting in the formation of diffraction rings. Recently, we have discovered that the irradiation of polymer-stabilized dye-doped LCs with a circularly polarized laser beam causes the unidirectional rotation of the elliptical diffraction rings. However, the mechanism remained unexplored. In this study, we prepared dye-doped LCs containing acrylate monomers and investigated the effect of monomers on the rotation speed of diffraction rings.</p>
