Coupling of Defect Modes in Cholesteric Liquid Crystals Separated by Isotropic Polymeric Layers
Cholesteric liquid crystal structures with multiple isotropic defect layers exhibit localized optical modes (defect modes). Coupling effects between these modes were simulated using the finite difference time domain method. Analogous to the well-known result of the tight-binding approximation in sol...
