Abstract
In this paper, we are going to demonstrate how realization of tunable magnetophotonic crystals (MPCs) is possible through introduction and investigation of a couple of structures containing a single liquid crystal (LC) defect layer. Our starting point is the recently discussed issue according to which in such structures any alteration in optical characteristics of the LC component will cause changes to happen regarding the overall magneto-optical (MO) response of the LC-based MPC. It will be shown that our optimized MPC structures are not only powerful in most respects but also multifunctional. For instance, while a structure is capable of being operated as a sensing tool with regard to the very factor that tends to control its MO response, other modes of operation offer a function of a switchable optical filter and also a perfect MO isolator.
