A polarization-independent blue phase liquid crystal lens array wit multi-electrode

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

A polarisation-independent blue-phase liquid crystal lens array using gradient electrodes is proposed. A high dielectric constant layer helps to smoothen out the horizontal electric field and reduce the operating voltage. With gradient electrodes and a planar top electrode, gradient electric fields are generated and lens-like phase profile is obtained. When the applied voltage is changed, the focal length of the lens can be tuned from ∞ to 5.94 mm. Besides, the simulation results show that the lens is insensitive to polarisation while keeping parabolic-like profile.
