Thesis

Liquid crystal technologies for enhanced optical system functionality

Abstract:

This thesis aims to investigate and develop novel liquid crystal (LC) technologies that can either manipulate the optical wavefront (phase) of light in a controlled way or improve the imaging quality by reducing the appearance of laser speckle by manipulating the optical wavefront in a pseudo-random way. Control of these properties is of great importance for a vast range of photonics and optics applications; for example, in LC spatial light modulators (LC-SLMs), near-eye displays, laser pr...
