Nematic deformation in homeotropically-aligned liquid crystal microlens and its optical properties
The experimental and theoretical investigations of the director deformation of homeotropically aligned nematic in axially -symmetrical electrical field of an asymmetrical liquid crystal microlens (LCM) were carried out. The calculation results of microlenses phase profiles and focal distance are in satisfactory accordance with experimental values.
