Abstract
Cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) are known to exhibit selective reflection of incident radiation due to their periodic helical structure, which makes them promising candidates for a myriad of different photonic applications. At normal incidence, CLCs reflect circularly polarized incident light of the same handedness as the cholesteric helix and of wavelength λ between noP and neP, where no and ne are the ordinary and extraordinary refractive indices, respectively, of the locally uniaxial structure, and P is the pitch of the helix. Thus, the reflection bandwidth Δλ is given by Δλ = ΔnP, where the birefringence Δn = ne − no. Within the bandwidth, right-circularly polarized light is reflected by a right-handed helix, whereas left-circularly polarized light is transmitted. Outside the bandwidth, both polarization states are transmitted. Therefore, Δλ depends on Δn. Moreover, Δn is typically limited to 0.3–0.4 for colorless organic compounds, and Δλ is often
