Spatial optical solitons and optical gain in liquid crystal devices
In this work, we study the nonlinear propagation of light in liquid crystals (LCs) and the optical gain provided by LCs when they are polymer- or dye-doped.We will focus on nematic LCs, which are characterized by a mean orientation (also called director) of the elongated molecules and by a subsequen...
