摘要
A liquid crystal lens with stacked structure of two liquid crystal layers is prepared and its numerical and experimental studies are reported. The two liquid crystal layers work together to form an optical lens. The electric field, the molecular reorientation, and the phase retardation induced on an incident light wave are calculated. Experimental results are compared with the calculations. The driving method avoiding disclination occurring is discussed.
