Polarization-dependent laser-light structured directionality with polymer composite materials

Abstract We report optical and morphological properties of organic photo-sensitive composite materials able to simultaneously produce polarization-dependent light concentration/directionality of an incident nano-pulsed laser-light and photo-generation of self-assembled polymeric texture, of which the orientation and location are dependent on the polarization-state of the incident laser-beam. Furthermore, we show that the same materials can be used in order to visualize the laser-light polarization state of high-intense nano-pulsed laser radiation.
