    "abstract": "We show theoretically that thermomechanical effects in dye-doped nematic\nliquid crystals when illuminated by laser beams, can become important and lead\nto molecular reorientation at intensities substantially lower than that needed\nfor optical Fr\\\u0027eedericksz transition. We propose a 1D model that assumes\nhomogenous intensity distribution in the plane of the layer and is capable to\ndescribe such a thermally induced threshold lowering. We consider a particular\ngeometry, with a linearly polarized light incident perpendicularly on a layer\nof homeotropically aligned dye-doped nematics.",
