本論文探討有關利用不同橢圓率偏振光激發摻雜於向列相液晶中的偶氮染料-甲基紅(methyl red,簡稱MR)之吸附效應。首先利用橢圓偏振之長軸平行液晶導軸的綠光雷射進行實驗,實驗結果發現由於MR吸收光能量的對稱性會導致多區域(multi-domain)吸附結果,為克服多區域吸附之現象,我們將橢圓偏振光之長軸更改為與液晶導軸夾+45o的橢圓偏振光,並分別利用固定橢圓偏振光之總光強度或固定其長軸方向光強度的方式來討論,結果發現利用不同橢圓率之橢圓偏振光所得之MR吸附所產生的液晶分子轉向效應,即扭轉角(twisted angle),會隨著橢圓率越接近1(圓偏振)而越小,而傾角(tilted angle)則幾乎都為零,兩部分的實驗都有同樣的結果。再利用不同光強度的圓偏振綠光雷射激發MR,觀察並探討MR吸附的結果,實驗結果顯示在圓偏振光各方向能量均等的情況之下,不會有扭轉角跟傾角產生,且在吸附面上有不均勻的成核(nucleation)現象發生。接著探討左右旋橢圓偏振光對MR吸附結果的影響,選取兩組橢圓率的左右旋橢圓偏振光,結果發現MR吸附的結果與左右旋橢圓偏振光無關,僅與橢圓長短軸方向有關。最後利用SEM觀察MR吸附的結果,實驗結果顯示該MR吸附並無波紋(ripple)結構的產生。
This thesis studies the alignment properties of liquid crystals by the adsorbed azo dyes (methyl red; MR) excited by elliptically polarized green laser beams with various ellipticities in azo dye-doped liquid crystals (ADDLCs). Firstly, an elliptically polarized green laser beam with its major axis being parallel to the liquid crystal director was used as the pump beam. Experimental results showed that MR molecules were adsorbed along multiple directions due to the symmetry light-absorbance by MR molecules. In other words, multi-domain adsorption was generated. Secondly, by overcoming the shortage of multi-domain adsorption, the major axis of the pump beam was changed to make an angle of +45o with the liquid crystal director. In this part, the alignment properties of the adsorbed MRs generated by illuminating elliptically polarized green laser beams with various ellipticities having a fixed light intensity or a fixed light component along the direction of major axis were studied. The experimental results indicated that the light-induced MR molecular reorientation effect, the so-called twisted angle, caused by the adsorbed MR, decreased with increasing ellipticity of the elliptically polarized green light. Notably, zero pre-tilt angle of LC alignment was achieved in this experiment. Thirdly, the MR adsorption effect recorded by circularly polarized green laser beams with various intensities was studied. Experimentally, neither the twisted angle nor the tilt angle was produced using circularly polarized green light. Additionally, the nucleation phenomenon, which caused a nonuniform adsorption layer was observed. Finally, the direction of the MR adsorption was found to be independent of the sign of the light ellipticity, but dependent on the direction of the major or minor axis of the elliptically polarized green pump beam. Moreover, the ripple structures of the adsorbed dyes, which were observed using a linearly polarized green pump beam were not observed in the cases pumped by elliptically or circularly polarized beam.
