A modeling method is discussed which considers the variables of the LC layer without the added variables of the polarizer and retarders. This method assumes that the polarization input into the LC layer will be well defined and makes no assumptions about the polarization between the LC layer and the reflector. This assumption need not be adjusted for a holographic slanted reflector (HSR), and is more generally applicable then previous optimization methods.
