Liquid crystals became a household item but their unequaled nonlocal optical properties are much less known and studied, although the breathtaking prospects of their future applications in photonics inspire many experts around the world. We will bring to Australia the state of the art research approach, theoretical and experimental, aiming to uncover and realize the potential of long range interaction between laser light and nonlocal liquid crystals for futuristic all-optical devices. This project will promote and enhance the rapid development of photonics in Australia, as well as deliver foremost practical expertise and outstanding training of young researchers.

液晶成为一种家庭用品，但其无与伦比的非局域光学特性却鲜为人知，尽管其在光子学中的未来应用前景令人惊叹，但世界各地的许多专家都受到了启发。我们将为澳大利亚带来最先进的研究方法，理论和实验，旨在发现和实现激光和非本地液晶之间的远程相互作用的潜力，为未来的全光学设备。该项目将促进和加强澳大利亚光子学的快速发展，并为年轻研究人员提供最前沿的实用专业知识和出色的培训。
