We study one-dimensional transverse modulational instability in a non local medium excited by a spatially incoherent source. Employing undoped nematic liquid crystals in a planar pre-tilted configuration, we investigate the role of the spectral broadening induced by incoherence in conjunction with spatially non local molecular reorientation. The phenomenon is modeled using the Wigner transform.

Abstract
We study one-dimensional transverse modulational instability in a non local medium excited by a spatially incoherent source. Employing undoped nematic liquid crystals in a planar pre-tilted configuration, we investigate the role of the spectral broadening induced by incoherence in conjunction with spatially non local molecular reorientation. The phenomenon is modeled using the Wigner transform.File allegati a questo prodotto
