    • An apparatus for optically coupling a light source with a light-receiving end face of an optical waveguide comprises a lens for focusing a light beam emitted from the light source at a focal point on the light-receiving end face of the optical waveguide. An adaptive coupler, positioned in the optical path, is responsive to a beam steering control signal for steering and aligning the focal point relative to the light-receiving end face of the optical waveguide. In one form, the adaptive coupler comprises a pair of transparent substrates having confronting, parallel inner faces, the inner face of one of the pair of substrates carrying a beam intercepting, optically transparent, constant potential electrode and the inner face of the other of the pair of substrates carrying an electrically resistive, beam intercepting, optically transparent film. A pair of spaced apart electrodes in electrical contact with the film apply a linear voltage gradient along the film. An electro-optical phase shifting medium is disposed between the confronting inner faces of the substrates. The application of selected voltages to the electrodes creates a linear voltage gradient along the aforementioned film on the inner face of the one substrate resulting in a linearly varying electric field between that film and the constant potential electrode creating a corresponding linear variation in the refractive index of the liquid crystal medium and a linear wavefront tilt in the intercepting optical beam.

    • A two-stage drive waveform switches a DFLC from a high tilt state to a low tilt state quickly and without scattering. A relaxation voltage is applied to delay the onset of the high amplitude high frequency kick voltage when switching from a high tilt state to a low tilt state. The relaxation voltage allows the molecules to ‘relax’ in accordance with their own elasticity towards their low tilt state in the direction of the average azimuth angle of the low tilt state. The kick voltage is then applied to drive the molecules quickly to the low tilt state. Optimal switching time and the desired molecular response is achieved by delaying the onset of the large kick voltage via application of the relaxation voltage. The relaxation voltage may constitute a lower amplitude holding voltage, a small or zero DC voltage or a smooth windowing of the kick voltage.
    • 两级驱动波形将DFLC从高倾斜状态快速切换到低倾斜状态,无散射。 当从高倾斜状态切换到低倾斜状态时,施加弛豫电压以延迟高幅度高频踢脚电压的开始。 松弛电压允许分子在低倾斜状态的平均方位角的方向上根据它们自身的弹性朝着它们的低倾斜状态而松弛。 然后施加击穿电压以快速将分子驱动到低倾斜状态。 通过施加松弛电压来延迟大的踢脚电压的开始来实现最佳切换时间和期望的分子响应。 弛豫电压可以构成较低的振幅保持电压,小的或零的直流电压或踢脚电压的平滑窗口。

    • A two-stage drive waveform switches a DFLC from a high tilt state such as above the LC's linear region or near the ‘saturated’ or ‘field-driven homeotropic’ state of the LC to a low tilt state quickly and without scattering. A relaxation voltage is applied to delay the onset of the high amplitude high frequency kick voltage when switching from a high tilt state to a low tilt state. The relaxation voltage allows the molecules to ‘relax’ in accordance with their own elasticity towards their low tilt state in the direction of the average azimuth angle of the low tilt state. Once the tilt angle has relaxed sufficiently, the kick voltage is applied to drive the molecules quickly to the low tilt state. Most unexpectedly, optimal switching time and the desired molecular response is achieved by delaying the onset of the large kick voltage via application of the relaxation voltage. The relaxation voltage may constitute a lower amplitude holding voltage, a small or zero DC voltage or a smooth windowing of the kick voltage. Whether to apply the relaxation voltage at all and how to apply the relaxation voltage for optimal switching are suitably controlled as a function of the high tilt state. The DFLC is suitably switched from the low-to-high tilt state in the conventional manner without application of a relaxation voltage.
    • 两级驱动波形将DFLC从LC倾斜状态(例如高于LC的线性区域)或接近LC的“饱和”或“场驱动垂直”状态切换到低倾斜状态,并且不发生散射。 当从高倾斜状态切换到低倾斜状态时,施加弛豫电压以延迟高幅度高频踢脚电压的开始。 松弛电压允许分子在低倾斜状态的平均方位角的方向上根据它们自身的弹性朝着它们的低倾斜状态“松弛”。 一旦倾斜角度已经充分放松,就施加踢击电压以将分子快速地驱动到低倾斜状态。 最意想不到的是,通过施加弛豫电压延迟大的踢脚电压的开始来实现最佳的开关时间和期望的分子响应。 弛豫电压可以构成较低的振幅保持电压,小的或零的直流电压或踢脚电压的平滑窗口。 作为高倾斜状态的函数,适当地控制是否施加弛豫电压以及如何施加用于最佳切换的弛豫电压。 DFLC适当地从常规方式从低到高倾斜状态切换,而不施加松弛电压。

    • A liquid crystal based broadband filter and imaging system for analyzing the polarization state of radiation. The filter includes four elements: a quarter wave plate; a 45° polarization rotator; a 90° polarization rotator; and a fixed polarizer. The first three of these elements are electronically switchable, allowing the user to select from any of the six possible polarization states. The switchable elements use multiple liquid crystal cells made from dual-frequency materials. A dual-frequency signal is used to activate and deactivate the various elements to achieve the desired state configuration. The dual-frequency signal drives the liquid crystal cells in and out of states, improving the overall switching time of the filter. The configuration of the liquid crystal cells within each of the filter allows broadband operation over most of the visible, infrared and ultraviolet spectra. The filter cycles through six configurations corresponding to the six polarization states of the incident radiation. Thus, the polarization state of the radiation can be completely characterized using the four Stokes parameters. Information related to the intensity and polarization of the radiation can be stored, displayed and analyzed.
