Abstract

A new figure of merit appropriate for optically addressed liquid-crystal spatial light modulators is derived. This figure of merit takes into account the change of phase retardation and switching time of a deformed liquid-crystal layer. The figure of merit is used in determining the optimal mix of polar and weak-polar components in the liquid-crystal layer.
