Dynamic geometric phase holography based on in-plane switching liquid crystal

Liquid crystal geometric phase modulation technology is expected to achieve thin, small and achromatic spatial light modulation, which in turn has the potential to achieve holographic displays with large field angles and high clarity. This article presents a continuous dynamic geometric phase liquid crystal spatial light modulation method based on in-plane switching (IPS) mode. The relationship between geometric phase modulation and driving voltage is calibrated by using interferometry. Two hundred fifty-six phase orders within the phase modulation range of 0 similar to pi/2 is achieved. Subsequently, a phase hologram with a modulation range of 0 similar to pi/2 was designed by combining the GS (Gerchberg-Saxton) algorithm and single Fourier transform, demonstrating the holographic display capability. This article provides a low-cost approach for dynamic geometric phase holographic display. [GRAPHICS] .
