Code 1 Dynamic phase measurement of fast liquid crystal phase modulators

Fells J, Salter P, Welch C, Jin Y, Wilkinson T, Booth M, Mehl G, Elston S, Morris S

This Code and Dataset supports the publication "Dynamic phase measurement of fast liquid crystal phase modulators".. The work reports an instrumentation system to measure optical phase using a heterodyne interferometer. A flexoelectro-optic liquid crystal phase modulator is used as the test device. Matlab scripts are provided to demodulate the data to recover the phase modulation. A set of data files are provided,which have been acquired from the measurement system using a Keysight U2331A data acquisition module. These data files relate to the figures and can be demodulated and plotted with the Matlab scripts provided.
