Abstract
A procedure combining accurate liquid crystal and electromagnetic modelling is developed for the analysis of wave propagation through liquid crystal devices. This is required to study the optics of high resolution liquid crystal cells or cells containing very small features, where diffraction effects occur. It is also necessary for the study of optical waveguiding devices using liquid crystal as variable permittivity substrates. An accurate finite element modelling program is used to find the permittivity tensor distribution, which is then used to find the response of the device to an excitation electromagnetic field by means of a finite difference in the frequency domain (FDFD) approach.
