研究目的
Investigating the high-quality tuning of cholesteric liquid crystal lasers based on a polymer composite system.
研究成果
The ChLC laser based on the polymer-LC composite system with equal parts of the polymer and LC retains high slope efficiency, low threshold, and narrow spectral linewidth throughout tuning operation, demonstrating fully continuous wavelength tuning over a 13 nm range.
研究不足
The study focuses on specific compositions of polymer-LC composites and their lasing characteristics under electric fields. Potential areas for optimization include further reducing light scattering and expanding the tuning range.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the fabrication of polymer-LC composite films by photopolymerizing mixtures of LC monomers and LCs, and examining their optical and lasing properties under electric fields.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples with varying weight ratios of LC monomer, nematic LC, and chiral dopant were prepared.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes UV light sources, multichannel spectrometer, scanning electron microscope, and laser measurement setup.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Involves cooling the samples to obtain a monodomain Grandjean texture, polymerizing with UV light, and measuring reflection, transmission, and lasing characteristics under electric fields.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Analysis of reflection and transmission spectra, lasing threshold, slope efficiency, and spectral linewidth.
