Abstract:We present an improved design for a polarization-insensitive liquid-crystal optical-path-length modulator that can be used with white light in an adaptive optics system.
IntroductionLiquid-crystal spatial light modulators (LCSLMs) have been shown to be good candidates for use in adaptive optical systems as high-performance optical-pathlength modulating elements, even with unpolarized light [1,2].The problem with such devices, originally, was that they had to be used with polarized light, since only the extraor… Show more
