A study of non-linear optical effects in liquid crystals, polymers and Langmuir-Blodgett films

Résultats exploitables

The work was developed in the directions related to each other through the common physical mechanism of the basic processes, namely, electric field and light induced molecular reorientation. - Study of poled polymers, either functionalized or doped with dyes; - Study of non-linear properties in a bulk of liquid crystals and Langmuir-Blodgett films; - Investigation of active solid interfaces for orientation of liquid crystals. Special attention has been paid to: - investigation of antiferroelectric achiral mesogenic polymers possessing very high pyroelectric figure of merit (Blinov's and Haase's group); -preparation and investigation of first two-dimensional ferroelectric systems-ultrathin polymer Langmuir-Blodgett films (Blinov's group); -development of Stark-spectroscopy technique for characterization of the non-linear properties of materials (Blinov's and Haase's group); theoretical and experimental investigation of photoinduced optical reorientation (Blinov's, Barnik's, Durand's groups); -STM imaging of Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers, ferroelectric polymers included (Blinov's group); - investigation of photoinduced director orientation in absorbing and non-absorbing liquid crystals in powerful laser beam (Barnik's group with participation of Lebedev Physical Institute, Moscow); - investigation of liquid crystal alignment by photo-processed and rubbed polymer films (Barnik's group); -investigation of polymer network stabilized liquid crystalline structures (Barnik's group).
