Multifunctional holographic liquid crystal elements based on polarization,wavelength and position multiplexing method
Fig. 1. (a)Conceptual diagram of the proposed multifunctional LC device. Recording process:the phase profiles of holograms are generated and superimposed to obtain the target phase profile,which is similar to the principle of traditional holograms. Holographic recovery:when the RCP light normally illuminates the fabricated LC device,the images corresponding to LCP light will be clearly displayed. d:distance.(b)Detailed explanation of recording process and phase profile of polarization multiplexing.

(a)Amplitude distribution,phase distribution,diffraction results of complex amplitude after superimposing two holograms,and diffraction results with extracted phase;(b)Amplitude distribution,phase distribution,diffraction results of complex amplitude after superimposing three holograms,and diffraction results with extracted phase;(c)Diffraction results when coefficients A are 1,2,3,4,respectively.
