Method to reveal spectral lines with the help of a guest-host LC cell
A new application of the well-known LC guest-host effect is considered. Observed experimentally, the absorption edge shift controlled electrically can be exploited as a mean for spectral scanning. Physical and mathematical backgrounds of the idea imbodiment are discussed. Results of spectral measurements on the one experimental cell are shown to demonstrate the viability of the method.
