Liquid Crystal Optical Phase Modulators for Beam Steering
Beamsteering using liquid crystals can be achieved with refractive or diffractive implementations. The common thread in these various structures is that the liquid crystal is employed as an optical phase modulator. Either nematic or smectic liquid crystal phases can be used to shift the phase of light and steer an optical beam. Various liquid crystal optical phase modulating schemes will be des...
متن کاملOptical phased-array beam steering controlled by wavelength.
A scheme for optical phased-array beam steering controlled by wavelength is proposed. In this scheme, the optical scanning device consists of arrayed optical waveguides with specific length differences, by which the desired phase slope that results in optical beam steering is formed at the ends of the waveguides and can be changed by varying the optical wavelength. By introducing the concept of...
متن کاملDemonstration of all-optical beam steering in modulated photonic lattices.
We demonstrate experimentally all-optical beam steering in modulated photonic lattices induced optically by three-beam interference in a biased photorefractive crystal. We identify and characterize the key physical parameters governing the beam steering and show that the spatial resolution can be enhanced by the additional effect of nonlinear beam self-localization.

متن کاملBroadband Beam Steering
A solid-state broadband beam deflector is described. This non-mechanical system steers spatially coherent broad band light to a common location in the far field. The components include a liquid crystal grating and achromatic Fourier transformer. The liquid crystal grating employs a polarization modulation scheme which produces a wavelength independent phase shift. The achromatic Fourier transfo...
