RT Conference Proceedings T1 Optimization of polarization rotators spectral response for broadband optical switching applications A1 Pinzón Castillo, Plinio Jesús A1 Pérez Garcilópez, Antonia Isabel A1 Vázquez García, María Carmen A1 Sánchez-Pena, José Manuel AB In this work, optimized designs of broadband polarization rotators based on cascadednematic liquid crystal cells are presented. Visible spectral range (400 nm – 700 nm) isconsidered in the designs. A simple computational optimization approach, with performancecomparable with more complex existing procedures, is used. Application of designedachromatic polarization rotators in the implementation of optical switches forwavelength division multiplexing in polymer optical fibers networks is also analyzed.
