Abstract

Most common optical elements employ some sort of phase delay in order to manipulate wavefronts. These optical elements (lenses, prisms, etc.) are well known and have fixed phase delays. Using a pixelated, phase modulating device, such as a liquid crystal television (LCTV), it is possible to design tunable lenses, prisms, and gratings.
