Abstract

The process of propagation of a polarized light beam through the optical system consisting of nematic liquid crystal layer with irregular thickness and circularly oriented director and a linear polarizer has been considered. It has been shown that every state of light polarization of the incident beam has its own, unique intensity distribution after this optical system. The form of the intensity distribution does not depend on the wavelength of the incident radiation.
