Polarization-independent Pancharatnam-Berry phase lens system
Abstract:
The conventional liquid crystal-based Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase lens exhibits distinct polarization selectivity, manifesting opposite optical power to circularly polarized light with opposite handedness. Here, a polarization-independent liquid crystal PB lens system is theoretically predicted and experimentally verified. Such a lens system consists of at least four PB lenses, with specific distances in between them. This enables the PB lens to be applied in polarization-independent optical systems.

Independent and Dependent Sources
Independent voltage or current sources supply a fixed amount of voltage or current, respectively, which is unaffected by other elements within the circuit. These are represented using specific symbols. Independent voltage sources are symbolized with polarities (+ and -), indicating the direction of the...
