Optically Controllable Linear-Polarization Rotator Using Chiral-Azobenzene-Doped Liquid Crystals

A linear-polarization rotator based on the optically tunable pitch of chiral-azobenzene-doped liquid crystals (CAdLCs) has been investigated. It is shown that the orientation of linearly polarized (LP) light can be optically tuned using CAdLCs and that the transmitted light possesses a good degree o...
