The influences of electric and magnetic fields on the transmission intensity are theoretically and experimentally analyzed and investigated. Both the electric and magnetic fields can manipulate the molecular arrangement of LC to array a certain angle without changing the refractive index of the LC. Therefore, light loss in the PCF varies with the electric and magnetic fields whereas the peak wavelengths remain constant. The experimental results show that the transmission intensity decreases with the increase of the electric and magnetic fields. The cut-off electric field is 0.899 V/um at 20 Hz and the cut-off magnetic field is 195 m T. This simple and compacted optical modulator will have a great prospect in sensing applications.展开更多

An expression for the induced shadow intensity is derived and found to be a function of the vortex's free surface profile, i.e., function of the static pressure distribution. The patterns for different focusing depth are given and compared with previous visualization results from the literature. The phenomenon is examined and illustrated as a bench mark case by using both steady and time-decaying algebraic vortex models. However, this study can be extended to check the feasibility of recovering the main flow properties by analyzing the luminous image intensity of the refracted patterns. The present analysis is valid only when the swirl velocity is order of magnitude higher than the meridional flow components and the vorticity is concentrated within the core region and of intense conditions.展开更多
