AbstractElectro-optical cell based on the cholesteric liquid crystal is studied with unique combination of the boundary conditions: conical anchoring on the one substrate and planar anchoring on another one. Periodic structures in cholesteric layer and their transformation under applied electric field are considered by polarizing optical microscopy, the experimental findings are supported by the data of the calculations performed using the extended Frank elastic continuum approach. Such structures are the set of alternating over- and under-twisted defect lines whose azimuthal director angles differ by $$180^\circ$$ 180 ∘ . The $$U^+$$ U + and $$U^-$$ U - -defects of periodicity, which are the smooth transition between the defect lines, are observed at the edge of electrode area. The growth direction of defect lines forming a diffraction grating can be controlled by applying a voltage in the range of $$0\le \, V \le 1.3$$ 0 ≤ V ≤ 1.3  V during the process. Resulting orientation and distance between the lines don’t change under voltage. However, at $$V>1.3$$ V > 1.3  V $$U^+$$ U + -defects move along the defect lines away from the electrode edges, and, finally, the grating lines collapse at the cell’s center. These results open a way for the use of such cholesteric material in applications with periodic defect structures where a periodicity, orientation, and configuration of defects should be adjusted.

We report the high-pressure synthesis and the equation of state (EOS) of a novel nickel carbide (Ni3C). It was synthesized in a diamond anvil cell at 184(5) GPa through a direct reaction of a nickel powder with carbon from the diamond anvils upon heating at 3500 (200) K. Ni3C has the cementite-type structure (Pnma space group, a = 4.519(2) Å, b = 5.801(2) Å, c = 4.009(3) Å), which was solved and refined based on in-situ synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The pressure-volume data of Ni3C was obtained on decompression at room temperature and fitted to the 3rd order Burch-Murnaghan equation of state with the following parameters: V0 = 147.7(8) Å3, K0 = 157(10) GPa, and K0' = 7.8(6). Our results contribute to the understanding of the phase composition and properties of Earth’s outer core.

Neighborite, NaMgF3, is used as a model system for understanding phase transitions in ABX3 systems (e.g., MgSiO3) at high pressures. Here we report diamond anvil cell experiments that identify the following phases in NaMgF3 with compression to 162 GPa: NaMgF3 (perovskite) → NaMgF3 (post-perovskite) → NaMgF3 (Sb2S3-type) → NaF (B2-type) + NaMg2F5 (P21/c) → NaF (B2) + MgF2 (cotunnite-type). Our results demonstrate the existence of an Sb2S3-type post-post-perovskite ABX3 phase. We also experimentally demonstrate the formation of the P21/c AB2X5 phase which has been proposed theoretically to be a common high-pressure phase in ABX3 systems. Our study provides an experimental observation of the full sequence of phase transitions from perovskite to post-perovskite to post-post-perovskite followed by 2-stage breakdown to binary compounds. Notably, a similar sequence of transitions is predicted to occur in MgSiO3 at ultrahigh pressures, where it has implications for the mineralogy and dynamics in the deep interior of large, rocky extrasolar planets.

Phase Retrieval Algorithm

Wavefront shaping through a multi-core fiber (MCF) is turning into an attractive method for endoscopic imaging and optical cell-manipulation on a chip. However, the discrete distribution and the low number of cores induce pixelated phase modulation, becoming an obstacle for delivering complex light field distributions through MCFs. We demonstrate a novel phase retrieval algorithm named Core–Gerchberg–Saxton (Core-GS) employing the captured core distribution map to retrieve tailored modulation hologram for the targeted intensity distribution at the distal far-field. Complex light fields are reconstructed through MCFs with high fidelity up to 96.2%. Closed-loop control with experimental feedback denotes the capability of the Core-GS algorithm for precise intensity manipulation of the reconstructed light field. Core-GS provides a robust way for wavefront shaping through MCFs; it facilitates the MCF becoming a vital waveguide in endoscopic and lab-on-a-chip applications.
