Whispering gallery resonators made out of lithium niobate allow for optical parametric oscillation and frequency comb generation employing the outstanding second-order nonlinear-optical properties of this material. An important knob to tune and control these processes is, e.g., the linear electro-optic effect, the Pockels effect via externally applied electric fields. Due to the shape of the resonators a precise prediction of the electric field strength that affects the optical mode is non-trivial. Here, we study the average strength of the electric field in z-direction in the region of the optical mode for different configurations and geometries of lithium niobate whispering gallery resonators with the help of the finite element method. We find that in some configurations almost 100% is present in the cavity compared to the ideal case of a cylindrical resonator. Even in the case of a few-mode resonator with a very thin rim we find a strength of 90%. Our results give useful design considerations for future arrangements that may benefit from the strong electro-optic effect in bulk whispering gallery resonators made out of lithium niobate.

AbstractWe report on a method to investigate the inhomogeneous distribution of an electric dc field in multilayer polymer stacks. In situ electroabsorption (EA) measurements are applied in order to estimate the local electric fields in double layer polymer films. The observed time dependent behaviour is compared with a model equivalent circuit. The results indicate that besides the relation of ohmic resistivities and capacities of the different polymer layers in the investigated systems also the influence of the electric properties of polymer/electrode and polymer/polymer interfaces must be considered.

Colloidal particles like polystyrene beads and metallic micro and nanoparticles are known to assemble in crystal-like structures near an electrode surface under both DC and AC electric fields. Various studies have shown that this self-assembly is governed by a balance between an attractive electrohydrodynamic (EHD) force and an induced dipole-dipole repulsion (Trau et al., 1997). The EHD force originates from electrolyte flow caused by interaction between the electric field and the polarized double layers of both the particles and the electrode surface. The particles are found to either aggregate or repel from each other on application of electric field depending on the mobility of the ions in the electrolyte (Woehl et al., 2014). The particle motion in the electrode plane is studied well under various conditions however, not as many references are available in the literature that discuss the effects of the AC electric field on their out-of-plane motion, especially at high frequencies (>10 kHz). Haughey and Earnshaw (1998), and Fagan et al. (2005) have studied the particle motion perpendicular to the electrode plane and their average height from the electrode mostly in presence of DC or low frequency AC (<1 kHz) electric field. However, these studies do not provide enough insight towards the effects of high frequency (>10 kHz) electric field on the particles’ motion perpendicular to the electrode plane.

Optical beams can be controlled by manipulating the refractive indices and absorption coefficients with applied electric fields. In communication systems electro-optic effects are used in phase and amplitude modulation, in beam deflectors, and in tunable filters. Three such effects are illustrated in Fig. 28.1. Lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) is a transparent electroceramic that can be prepared in several different ferroelectric forms with large electro-optic coefficients. When prepared in a normal ferroelectric form it can be used in two different ways. A light-tunable shutter is constructed by coating a multidomain ceramic of PLZT with a photoconducting layer and transparent electrodes. A bias voltage on the electrodes is transferred to the ceramic when the photoconductor is illuminated. The electric field alters the domain structure and the degree of light scattering, controlling the intensity of light. Fully poled ferroelectric ceramics exhibit the linear electro-optic effect Using planar electrodes the PLZT is poled perpendicular to the optical beam. Polarizer and analyzer are positioned in the ±45◦ positions, and light intensity is controlled by altering the birefringence with an electric field. The third experiment utilizes a pseudo-cubic PLZT composition with a large quadratic electro-optic effect. No poling is required in this case. With polarizer and analyzer again in the ±45◦ positions, the transmitted light intensity is proportional to E2 rather than E. Linear and quadratic electro-optic coefficients are defined in terms of the fieldinduced changes in the optical indicatrix: . . . Bij(E) − Bij(0) = Δ

AbstractResults of the theoretical study of surface effects in ionic crystalline solids under the action of high-frequency electric fields of moderate intensity are presented. The averaged ponderomotive action of the electric field on the charged vacancies within the crystal causes directional mass transport that leads to development of a surface instability. The analysis shows that the proposed effect can result in the formation of a periodic profile on the surface.

Abstract The “radiocoagulation” of latex has been developed in the laboratories of L'Office National des Recherches et Inventions by Dufour and Leduc, who conceived the idea of applying the effect of electric fields of high frequency to rubber latex. When latex is exposed to the action of an electric field of high frequency, the entire body of liquid is heated uniformly, provided that the electric field itself is uniform. The causes of this heating effect are difficult to ascertain because various phenomena are involved simultaneously, e. g., a dielectric loss in the rubber and a loss by the Joule effect in the serum. Each of these effects is, according to conditions, the predominant one, e. g., by increasing the conductivity of the serum, electrolytes such as sodium sulfate or ammonium sulfate increase the Joule loss, U2/R, whereas an increase in the concentration of latex tends to increase the dielectric loss. Finally, since rubber particles are not electrically neutral, they are subject to alternating forces of the electric field, which is a specific effect of the high frequency, and these forces impart to the rubber particles movements throughout the liquid. Now latex can be rendered sensitive to mechanical forces, i. e., some mixtures can be coagulated by slight agitation. Accordingly it is conceivable that a high-frequency electric field, by setting the rubber particles in motion throughout the emulsion, is capable of coagulating a mass of latex exposed to the field.
