Propagation of High Power Laser Beam in Nematic Liquid Crystal and Its Diffraction Ring Effect
High power laser induced nonlinear optical effects in liquid crystal are prone to deteriorate the optical properties of liquid crystal device. The self diffraction phenomenon was observed when high power Gaussian profile laser beam propagate in 5CB liquid crystal
which was taken by high speed camera. The dynamical evolution of the diffraction phenomenon was studied to analyze the nonlinear optical properties of the liquid crystal. Kirchhoffs diffraction integral was applied to study the diffraction rings induced by Gaussian profile laser beam propagating in self-defocusing medium numerically. The comparison of experimental result with theoretical result elucidates the nonlinear effect of liquid crystal.
