Abstract

We report on work on producing phase-only polymer-dispersed liquid crystals for use in spatial light modulators for adaptive optics. The aim is to assess the magnitude of the achievable phase shifts and the associated slew rate. We describe our methodology of producing devices and present our initial results.
