Optics and nonlinear optics of liquid crystals /
Khoo, Iam-Choon.
Optics and nonlinear optics of liquid crystals / Iam-Choon Khoo, Shin-Tson Wu. - Singapore ; River Edge, NJ : World Scientific, ©1993. - 1 online resource (xii, 425 pages) : illustrations - Series in nonlinear optics ; v. 1 . - Series in nonlinear optics ; v. 1. .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Ch. 1. Optical properties of liquid crystals -- ch. 2. Electro-optical properties of liquid crystals. pt. 1. Electro-optics of nematics. pt. 2. Electro-optics of polymer-dispersed liquid crystals. pt. 3. Electro-optics of ferroelectric LCs. pt. 4. Selected applications -- ch. 3. Nonlinear optical properties of liquid crystals -- ch. 4. Nonlinear optics.
This is a monograph/text devoted to a detailed treatment of the optical, electro-optical and nonlinear optical properties of all the mesophases of liquid crystals and related processes, phenomena and application principles. Quantitative data on material and optical parameters spanning the ultraviolet, visible, infrared as well as the microwave regimes are presented along with detailed theoretical treatments of basic liquid crystal physics, material properties and nonlinear optics. Starting with a discussion on the basic building blocks of liquid crystalline molecules, the authors proceed to present in a pedagogical manner current theories, experiments, and applications of these unique and important optical properties of liquid crystals. Numerous tables of hard-to-find liquid crystalline parameters, a self-contained chapter on general nonlinear optics, and comprehensive literature review are also included.
