报告摘要：

Chiral nematic liquid crystals (CLC) being anatural photonic crystal due to their self-assembled supramolecular helicalstructure exhibit a lot of interesting features peculiar of the band bagmaterials. Parameters of the CLC band gap could be effectively tuned due to asensitivity of liquid crystals to external factors, such as fields, temperatureetc. A generalised Light-Induced Order Modification (LIOM) model accounts forthe changes of the refractive indices of a thin LC layer resulted from thelight-stimulated modulation of the LC order parameter. The LIOM-mechanismexplains experimentally observed large optical nonlinearities with extremelyfast as for the LC system recording times accompanied with a very highresolution has been achieved (< 1 µm). Being strictly local, the LIOM-mechanismallows for a spatial resolution opening new possibilities for volume gratingrecording. Effective at any wavelength it could also be applied for creation ofarbitrary phase profiles over extensive areas as requested in several applicationsfor light beam manipulation.
