The irradiation with an Ar laser beam of the cells filled with 5CB doped with MR has been performed in a series of the type on – off – on in a pump-probe experiment. In the first period of irradiation the recorded probe signal of a He-Ne laser beam is quasi-constant at beginning of the time and then increased with the irradiation time. A jump and a delay were observed at the end of the first irradiation period. In the off period of irradiation the signal is quasi-constant. A jump and a delay were also observed at the second irradiation. These experimental results were explained based on the trans-cis and cis-trans isomerisation of the MR molecules and on the fact that the trans isomer has an absorbance for the red light (He- Ne laser) less than that corresponding to the cis isomer..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
