Optical phase conjugation in the hybrid polymer liquid crystal panel

In this paper, we present experimental results of the optical phase conjugation (PC) process in nematic liquid crystal cell with a photoconducting polymer layer (PVK doped with TNF). We analyze and discuss the influence of a few parameters (applied voltage, power of the laser beams, and geometry of an experiment) on conjugation efficiency. We also present experimental results showing possible application of the optical phase conjugation phenomenon in correction of phase distortion and aberration.
