Abstract

We report theoretical and experimental studies of supra-photorefractive nematic liquid crystals doped with C60 and/or Carbon nanotubes. Theoretical estimate shows that the nonlinear refractive index change coefficient n ₂ in such systems can be ≫ 1 cm²/Watt. Experimentally, we have observed n₂ of ∼ 10 cm²/W, with typical nematic response times.
