Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter (peer-reviewed)

Abstract / Description of output

We report on recent work on the application of liquid crystals to variable lenses. We demonstrate the construction and operation of a novel and simple form of modal LC lens which offers both converging and diverging modes of operation, as well as tip/tilt and astigmatism.
