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.
Spatial light modulator hologram.
We are working on the 3 d hologram and viewing it in space and that can be done using more than one system.
For hologram synthesis i e.
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.
Pluto phase only spatial light modulators the pluto spatial light modulator slm is used to control an lcos liquid crystal on silicon active matrix reflective mode phase only lcd with resolution 1920 1080 and a 0 7 diagonal.
For maximum phase shift values refer to the table to the upper right.
The reduction in horizontal pixel pitch of the slm provides a wide viewing zone angle.
The increased image height and horizontal scanning.
In order to increase the image size and the viewing zone angle of a hologram a high speed spatial light modulator slm is imaged as a vertically long image by an anamorphic imaging system and this image is scanned horizontally by a galvano scanner.
Such a device has relevant applications in holographic displayor projection systems and for optical micromanipulation in laser tweezers.
Each spatial light modulator includes a built in slm panel with independent horizontal and vertical tilt adjustment of 3 2.
Holoeye s spatial light modulator systems are based on translucent lcd or reflective lcos liquid crystal microdisplays.
The hologram uses multiplexed phase fresnel lenses mpfls with features of independent tunability three dimensional 3d parallelism of the diffraction peaks.
The one dimensional amplitude cosine grating is loaded on the slm which is placed between the object and hologram plane in order to collect more high frequency.
The light path is folded such that the two corresponding phase masks can be displayed side by side at a single phase only spatial light modulator.
Use of the slm enables performance of an arbitrary and variable patterning in laser processing.
A spatial light modulator slm is an object that imposes some form of spatially varying modulation on a beam of light.
The computation step fresnel transform based or point source based raytracing methods can be applied.
A super resolution imaging method using dynamic grating based on liquid crystal spatial light modulator slm is developed to improve the resolution of a digital holographic system.
These spatial light modulators provide far more pixels than lower order phase modulators such as segmented or deformable mirrors.
