Abstract

The incident angle dependences of the diffraction properties of orthogonal-circular polarization gratings (OCPGs) fabricated using a polymer liquid crystal exhibiting biaxial anisotropy have been investigated. The investigations were conducted with the plane orthogonal to the surface of the OCPGs as the plane of incidence. It was found that a specific biaxial anisotropy reduces the incident angle dependence of optically thin OCPGs against the wavelength of the incident light, and is less effective on thick OCPGs. In addition, a method also has been proposed to determine the biaxial anisotropic shape that most reduces the incident angle dependence in thin OCPGs.
