Two-dimensional polarization encoding with a phase-only liquid-crystal spatial light modulator.
Two-dimensional polarization encoding with a phase-only liquid-crystal spatial light modulator.
We show how to two dimensionally encode the polarization state of an incident light beam using a parallel-aligned liquid-crystal spatial light modulator (LCSLM). Each pixel of the LCSLM acts as a voltage-controlled wave plate and can be programmed over a 2pi phase range […]
