Electric field tuning of an optical stop band in a reflection spectrum is demonstrated in a synthetic opal thin film infiltrated with liquid crystal. The reflection peak of the opal shifts upon the application of the electric field, and this is based on the refractive index change caused by molecular reorientation upon application of a field. The dynamic response of the stop band shift was also studied, and fast response of the order of microsecond was observed. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
