Optically isotropic switchable microlens arrays based on liquid crystal.
We present an optically isotropic switchable microlens array (MLA) based on liquid crystals (LCs) using the Joule heating electrode structure. The LC molecules were initially aligned vertically on the lens and electrode surfaces. By applying voltage to the transparent electrodes, the temperature of the LC layer could be changed. Above the clearing point temperature of LCs, the LC layer shows an...
متن کاملPolychromatic liquid crystal laser arrays towards display applications.
Band-edge liquid crystal lasers are of interest for a number of applications including laser projection displays. Herein, we demonstrate simultaneous red-green-blue lasing from a single liquid crystal sample by creating a two-dimensional laser array fabricated from dye-doped chiral nematic liquid crystals. By forming a pitch gradient across the cell, and optically pumping the sample using a len...
متن کاملAdvanced Liquid Crystal on Silicon Optical Phased Arrays
Non-mechanical beamsteering eliminates the need for massive optomechanical components to steer the field of view of optical systems. This benefit is to come in the form of compact, low-power, lightweight optical phased arrays (OPAs) that provide better control with greater flexibility in their steering capability than their mechanical counterparts. Due to such benefits, there is a need to devel...
متن کاملBroadband polarization correction with programmable liquid-crystal modulator arrays.
We demonstrate a novel method of parallel, multiwavelength state-of-polarization (SOP) correction. Using a new liquid-crystal modulator array design, we are able to rotate the distorted input SOP spectrum to a fixed linear state on a wavelength-by-wavelength basis. We report experimental correction of up to 25.5-dB polarization-dependent loss over a 13-nm bandwidth around 1550 nm.
متن کاملLiquid-crystal microlens arrays using patterned polymer networks.
A real-time dynamically tunable-focus microlens array made from a polymer-liquid-crystal (LC) composite is demonstrated. The polymer was first patterned in microlens array cavities by lamination, and the LC-monomer mixture was then injected to the molded polymer cavities and finally stabilized by UV light-induced networks. Using this new fabrication method, we demonstrated a lens with a spheric...
