Abstract:
Application of an electric field to nanorods can control their alignment, thus providing techniques for ultra-fast switching and optical modulators, for example those that might serve as display indicators.

Claim (Index 1):
An electro-optical fluid fiber component comprising:\n an inlet and an outlet configured to receive and send light, respectively; a plurality of nanorods contained between the inlet and outlet; and electrodes configured to apply an electric field to the nanorods and thereby modulate passage of the light through the fiber component, wherein the component is operable at switching speeds of one millisecond or less.
