The molecules are typically rod-shaped organic moieties about 25 Angstroms in length and their ordering is a function of temperature. The nematic phase, for example, is characterized by the orientational order of the constituent molecules. The molecular orientation (and hence the material's optical properties) can be controlled with applied electric fields. Liquid crystal science and applications permeate many segments of society from large industrial displays to individual homes and offices. Non-display applications in nonlinear optics, optical communication and data/signal/image are receiving increasing attention and are growing at a rapid pace"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aWiley Series in Pure and Applied Optics 606 $aLiquid crystals$vCongresses 615 0$aLiquid crystals 676 $a530.4/29 700 $aKhoo$b Iam-Choon$0313994 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829834303321 996 $aLiquid crystals$9881447 997 $aUNINA
