Abstract
The transmission of a LCD for normal incident light can be simply calc ulated by a clever use of the Jones calculus. Several cases are treate d in different ways. The results for a few examples are compared with the more general simulations according to the 4 x 4 Berreman method, w hich also takes internal reflections into account. Our fast optical ca lculations are useful when predicted molecular distributions should be confronted with experimental optical spectra.
