Description

The global Liquid Crystal Phase Retarder market size is predicted to grow from US$ million in 2025 to US$ million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of %from 2025 to 2031.

A liquid crystal phase retarder is a device that uses the optical properties of liquid crystal materials to control the phase retardation of light. Liquid crystal is a kind of liquid with orderly arrangement of molecules, and has electro-optic effect, that is, the propagation speed of light and the polarization state of light can be changed under the action of electric field. A liquid crystal phase retarder usually consists of a liquid crystal layer, a glass substrate, electrodes and a control circuit. The liquid crystal layer is sandwiched between two parallel glass substrates, each coated with electrodes. When an electric field is applied to the liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal molecules rearrange, thereby changing the phase difference when light passes through the liquid crystal layer. By adjusting the electric field strength or voltage applied to the liquid crystal phase retarder, the phase retardation of light can be precisely controlled. The phase retarder can adjust the phase delay of the light in a continuously adjustable range as required. This makes liquid crystal phase retarders widely used in the fields of optical modulation, optical interference, polarization control, and optical imaging. The working principle of liquid crystal phase retarder is based on the orientation adjustment of liquid crystal molecules and the change of molecular arrangement under the action of electric field. By rationally designing the arrangement structure of liquid crystal molecules and the applied electric field, high-precision control of the phase delay of light can be achieved, thereby realizing phase modulation and control of light.
