| The paper analyzes the light propagation in anisotropic liquid crystal fiber structures in order to find the possibilities to apply them to control and switch the polarization state and modulate some parameters of the transmitted light. The long term goal and motivation of the authors was the suggestion to replace the light modulating liquid crystal cell by a new generation of liquid crystal waveguides as an all-fiber light modulator, as well as sensors for different environmental parameters. |
