(a) Unit periodic cell of the simulated structure showing the perpendicularly placed microelectrodes on both sides of the LC cell. (b) Tilt angle profiles at the x-y and y-z mid-planes of the unit cell for an applied voltage of 10 V. Reduced LC switching is observed in the areas close to the inter-electrode gaps. (c) Modulation of the average refractive index along across the LC cell (y-axis) for an applied voltage of 10 and 2 V.
