In this paper we review the state of the art in the field of liquid-crystal tunable guided-wave
photonic devices, a unique type of fill-once, molecular-level actuated, optofluidic systems …

A liquid-crystal-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed for electro-optical modulation.
The E7 liquid crystal is precisely filled in one of the innermost air holes of the PCF and forms …

Optical fiber sensors are of splendid strength for electrical field intensity sensor due to
characteristics including the immunity to electromagnetic interference, lightweight, high …

A novel polarization splitter based on dual-core silica glass photonic crystal fiber with a
liquid crystal modulation core is studied by the finite-element method. The mode …

The electrically sensing characteristics of a liquid-crystal (LC)-infiltrated polarization-
maintaining photonic crystal fiber (PCF) have been studied. The small holes on the end face …

We propose an electric field tunable nematic liquid crystal (NLC) infiltrated single-hole
hollow fiber sensor for voltage measurement. Due to only an air hole, the proposed sensor …

The molecules of nematic liquid crystal rotate as the ambient voltage increases. A photonic
crystal fiber with many holes distributed on its cross section provides a platform to integrate …

A photonic crystal fiber was selectively infiltrated only two of the air holes near the core with
liquid crystal. The selective infiltration caused geometric asymmetry and created high …

A laser-assisted tuning method of whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in a cylindrical
microresonator based on magnetic-fluids-infiltrated microstructured optical fibres (MFIMOFs …
