title: Three-dimensional vector recording in polarization sensitive liquid crystal composites by using axisymmetrically polarized beam.
abstract: Three-dimensional anisotropic structures were fabricated by a recording axisymmetrically polarized beam in azobenzene (azo)-dye doped liquid crystal polymer composites. Polarization and wavefront modulation properties of fabricated anisotropic structures are investigated by experimentally and theoretically analyzing the diffraction properties. Photo-induced anisotropic structures would be utilized to generate singular light waves, such as optical and polarization vortices.
