Liquid Crystal on VLSI Silicon Optical Phased Array
Several applications for solid-state, random access beam directors have emerged in recent years, including scanners, laser radar components, interconnects, elements for addressing holographic storage, beam routing devices, and adaptive switching networks. We discuss implementation of optical phased arrays using a liquid crystal on silicon approach. By using very large scale integration (VLSI) t...
متن کاملImprovement the reflection coefficient of Waveguide-Fed Phased-Array Antenna utilizing Liquid Crystal
Abstract— This work investigates the improvement of the active reflection coefficient of waveguide-fed phased-array antenna using liquid crystal layers. The anisotropy properties of liquid crystal layer can be employed to eliminate blind scan angle and improve the wide angle impedance matching of the waveguide-fed phased array antennas. The authors have expressed the modal analysis of the waveg...
متن کاملStressed liquid-crystal optical phased array for fast tip-tilt wavefront correction.
A liquid-crystal optical phased-array technology that uses stressed liquid crystals provides a new type of tip-tilt wavefront corrector. It demonstrates a very fast time response (10 kHz) and high beam-steering efficiency (approximately 91%). The new technology presented here will allow for a nonmechanical, high-speed correction with simple device construction.
متن کاملModeling and Design of an Optimized Liquid-Crystal Optical Phased Array
In this paper, the physics that determines the performance limits of a diffractive optical element based on a liquid-crystal ͑LC͒ optical phased array ͑OPA͒ is investigated by numerical modeling. The influence of the fringing electric fields, the LC material properties, and the voltage optimization process is discussed. General design issues related to the LC OPA configuration, the diffraction angl...
متن کاملFinite-difference time-domain simulation of a liquid-crystal optical phased array.
Accurate modeling of a high-resolution, liquid-crystal-based, optical phased array (OPA) is demonstrated. The modeling method is extendable to cases where the array element size is close to the wavelength of light. This is accomplished through calculating an equilibrium liquid-crystal (LC) director field that takes into account the fringing electric fields in LC OPAs with small array elements a...
