摘要
Phototuning of Bragg reflection bandgap from green to blue and from red to green wavelengths was induced with a green (lambda = 532 nm) laser beam in a cholesteric liquid crystal based on highly sensitive azobenzene nematic BEAM 1005 (BEAM Co.) and UV transparent non-photoisomerizable optically active dopant ZLI-6248 (R-2011) (Merck Ltd.). Optical switching between reflected and transmitted beams, as well as nonlinear transmission and reflection due to Bragg reflection band shift are studied in detail.
