Figure 2 | Characterization of the reconfigurable FLC chiral nanostructure for dynamic 1st/2nd-order differentiation. The theoretical distribution of the optical axis, simulated and experimental optical micrographs of the fabricated FLC differentiator under crossed polarizers without external electric field, under positive electric field (+5 V), and under negative electric field (-5 V), respectively. The color bar of simulated micrographs illustrates the optical axis distribution of FLC differentiator. The hazy-blue ellipsoid represents the local equivalent optical axis. The white and yellow double-ended arrows label the direction of the polarizer and analyzer, respectively. All scale bars are 100 μm.
