WUHAN, China (November 19, 2015) - Wuhan Optoelectronics Forum No. 108 was successfully held in Auditorium A101 at Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics (WNLO) in the morning of November 19.
Liquid crystal display has a huge industrial application. For decades, we focused on the optical manipulation of liquid crystal material in different optical bands. In this talk, I will introduce some important progress in liquid crystal optical devices and applications in our group. We develop an angular orientation of micro liquid crystal based on digital microlens array (DMD), then we introduce the diffractive characteristics, and application in optical tweezers, OAM, and quantum information processing.
Prof. Yanqing Lu is the deputy director of school of modern engineering and applied science, Nanjing University, Yangtse River Scholar, distinguished youth scholar. He received his physics doctor degree at Nanjing University in 1996, then worked at Nanjing University. From 2000 to 2006, he worked at optoelectronic companies in US, Taiwan in the area of liquid crystal optoelectronic devices. From 2006, he returned to Nanjing University as a professor. His current research interests include liquid crystal optics, nonlinear optics, and fiber optics. He owned more than 40 patents, and published more than 100 papers, including Science, PRL, AM, Light, LPR, APL, OL/OE. The papers have been cited more than 2000 times. Currently he is the associate editor of “Optical materials express”, and editorial member of Scientific Reports, Chinese Optics Letters.
