11 October 1999Nonlinear absorption and refraction of linearly polarized nanosecond laser radiation by liquid crystals in the transient regime
This work aims at understanding how the liquid crystal device geometry affects its transient nonlinear response to 6-9 ns laser radiation, 10-Hz repetition rate. Results reported here are from Z-scan measurements at 0.532-micrometers laser wavelength of two pure liquid crystals with 'rod-like' molecules of similar chemical composition, but distinguished by conformal differences, i.e., 5CB and chiral CB15.
