Abstract

The effect of compensation for the spectral dispersion of light polarization states at the output of a single-domain layer of a chiral liquid crystal (CLC) is experimentally studied. It is shown that such dispersion can be decreased significantly with the aid of phase plates of two types that have different signs of the spectral dispersion of birefringence. The dispersion compensation allows one to significantly increase the operating spectral range of fast light modulators based on chiral nematic liquid crystals (NLCs).
