Liquid crystals are known for their fascinating optical properties.
This work describes the experiments on light scattering and
theoretical calculations on nonlinear optics in liquid crystals.
Light scattering is a powerful tool to study the viscoelastic
response of liquid crystals which is an essential parameter for
display industry. Both thermotropic and lyotropic systems were
probed by light scattering. Thermal nonlinearities in cholesteric
liquid crystals are described in this book and various surprising
liquid crystal phase transitions in the presence of a laser beam
are reported. The work described in the book is based on Ph.D. work
carried out by Amit K Agarwal at the Raman Research Institute,
India and all intellectual and other legal rights arising out of
this work are owned by the Institute and they are acknowledged and
protected.
