Title

Achromatic Polarization Switch Using A Film-Compensated Twisted Nematic Liquid Crystal Cell

Abstract

A broadband polarization switch consisting of an active twisted nematic liquid crystal cell and two passive uniaxial compensation films is analysed. The conjugate gradient method was used for optimizing the device parameters. Simulation results indicate that the polarization switch exhibits a broad bandwidth and high contrast ratio. The manufacturing tolerances on cell gap, twist angle and compensation films thickness are reasonably large.
