CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishWe analyze the angular steering of self-confined light beams, i.e., spatial solitons, in nematic liquid crystals exploiting both their electro-optic response and reorientational nonlinearity. A bias-induced interface is obtained with comb electrodes in a planar cell, applying two distinct voltages to control the spatial distribution of the optic axis. The configuration allows spatial solitons to propagate in a plane and maximize their deflection via refraction and total internal reflection, with an overall deflection of 70° in standard E7. © 2011 Optical Society of America.
