Spatial light modulator. For further details please refer to the references of selected scientific publications. When designing or analyzing an optical system there is little need for taking the particle. Wavefront control of light 2 1 wavefront of light as a wave light is a stream of quanta having both the characteristics of a wave and a particle. Converts incoherent light to spatial mod ulation.
Our reflective lcos liquid crystal on silicon is an advanced spatial light modulator for full high resolution applications. Spatial light modulator slm is a general term describing devices that are used to modulate amplitude phase or polarization of light waves in space and time. Holoeye offers a wide range of spatial light modulators for amplitude and phase modulation. Lcos spatial light modulators allow high quality fully flexible and dynamic creation of these lightmodes.
A spatial light modulator slm is an electrically programmable device that modulates light according to a fixed spatial pixel pattern. Holoeye s spatial light modulator slm systems are based on translucent or reflective liquid crystal microdisplays. A spatial light modulator slm is an object that imposes some form of spatially varying modulation on a beam of light. Converts electrical signals to spatial modulation.
The goal of the programme is to develop and integrate the first fully working prototype of a nanoantenna based spatial light modulator nslm in which each pixel has sub wavelength dimensions being formed by a single or a few nanoantennas that are dynamically switchable by external electrical signals. Spatial light modulator device that spatially modulates a coherentbeam of light. We like to show you the main applications fields for spatial light modulators and the benefits they can offer you. Slms have an expanding role in several optical areas where light control on a pixel by pixel basis is critical for optimum system performance.

The full high definition full hd resolution 10 bit 1024 gray levels and excellent phase stability 0 003π rad make ultra fine light modulation possible for various applications. A simple example is an overhead projector transparency usually when the phrase slm is used it means that the transparency can be controlled by a computer in the 1980s large slms were placed on overhead projectors to project computer monitor contents to the screen. These spatial light modulators provide far more pixels than lower order phase modulators such as segmented or deformable mirrors.
