Abstract

Liquid crystals [LCs] in their various ordered and disordered phases have been shown to possess large optical and electro-optical nonlinearities over wide temporal [cw to picosecond] and spectral [visible to infrared] ranges.1 In conjunction with their many other unique physical properties, various novel liquid crystalline structures, such as thin films or pixels with, slab waveguides, LC-cored fibers and fiber arrays, could be constructed that will provide superior performance in specific optical switching, imaging, and processing applications.
