Self-Action of Light Beams in an Amorphous Azobenzene Polymer
We report an experimental study of the self-action of TEM01 and TEM00 Gaussian modes in a layer of a comb-shaped amorphous polymer with cyanobiphenyl and azobenzene side fragments. For the linearly polarized TEM0...

ABERRATIONAL PATTERN DURING THE SELF-ACTION OF THE ТЕМ01 MODE OF LIGHT RADIATION IN NEMATIC LIQUID CRYSTALS
Abstract—The properties of the aberrational pattern resulting from the self-action of the light radiation mode TEM01 in liquid-crystal systems are studied. It is found that the interference of light rays correspo...

Orienting effect of light on dye-doped liquid-crystal polymer
Light-induced reorientation of the dye-doped liquid-crystal polymer director is found and studied. The director rotates from the light field direction, which corresponds to the negative optical nonlinearity. T...

Orientational optical nonlinearity induced by comb-shaped polymers in a nematic liquid crystal
The effect of optical orientation in nematic liquid crystals containing small additions of high-molecular compounds, i.e., comb-shaped polymers with light-absorbing azobenzene side fragments, was studied. The ...
