Programmable liquid crystal waveplate polarization gratings as elements for polarimetric and interference applications
We review the use of a parallel aligned nematic liquid crystal spatial light modulator as a very useful and flexible device for polarimetric and interferometric applications. The device acts as a programmable pixelated waveplate, and the encoding of a linear grating permits its use as a polariza...
