Broadband Thermo-Optic Switching Effect Based on Liquid Crystal Infiltrated Photonic Crystal Fibers
We demonstrate a liquid-crystal-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) and investigate its temperature response with a unique liquid crystal (LC) clearing point of 58 °C. Opposite temperature responses are observed at the temperature that is lower and higher than the LC's clearing point...
