Abstract: The spatial dynamics of polarized light in a smoothly inhomogeneous anisotropic medium mixed with an anisotropic absorbing dye is analyzed. As such a medium, a twist-oriented nematic liquid crystal with a pleochroic dye was considered. In the geometrical-optical approximation, a system of coupled shortened equations for the Cartesian components of the electric component of the light wave is obtained. A system of coupled complex equations was analytically solved and the behavior of a linearly polarized wave in such a medium was analyzed in the case of both absorption and amplification. An asymmetric effect of these two processes on the spatial dynamics of light propagation in the medium is found.
Keywords: pleochroism, Fredericks transition, permittivity tensor, Jones vector.
