Spatial-Light-Modulator Interconnected Computers

Computer, 1987
Optical technologies perform the basic computer operations of communications, switching, and storage, have already proven superior to electronics for many communications situations, and advances in devices and materials suggest that optics are important for switching and storage.

Spatial Light Modulation in GaAs

Spatial Light Modulators and Applications, 1988
Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) is the most technologically-important compound semiconductor for electronics and optoelectronics. Semi-insulating Cr-doped and undoped GaAs crystals are known to be photorefractive.1,2 This provides opportunities to use GaAs for optical processing, including spatial light modulation. In this paper, we will present recent results

Performance evaluation of spatial light modulators

Applied Optics, 1979
An experimental test procedure and associated theoretical formulations are described for the evaluation of spatial light modulators (SLMs) for coherent optical computing. The experimental data included were obtained by us on Hughes liquid crystal and photo DKDP SLMs among others.

Photorefractive Spatial Light Modulator

SPIE Proceedings, 1990
A novel concept for implementing a high resolution spatial light modulator using a thin slab of photorefractive crystal is described. Experimental demonstration as well as an analysis of the operation and performance of the device are given.

The Scophony Spatial Light Modulator

SPIE Proceedings, 1984
The Scophony scanner uses the same optical elements as the more familiar flying spot scanner: a rotating polygon mirror, an acoustooptic (A/0) modulator, and a laser light source. The flying spot scanner is designed to construct its image a pixel at a time; no more than one pixel is illuminated at any given instant.

Photovoltaic spatial light modulator

Journal of Applied Physics, 1991
A novel concept for implementing a high-resolution spatial light modulator using a thin slab of photorefractive LiNbO3 crystal is described. This method uses the photovoltaic effect to impress phase information onto the crystal without the use of holography where coherent reference beams are required.

Miniature spatial light modulators

SPIE Proceedings, 1990
ABSTRACTSpatial light modulators (SLM) are examined from the viewpoint of miniaturization and optical correlation systems. The structure and behavior of a silicon-chip active-matrix-addressed ferroelectric liquid-crystal SLM is presented. Theresponse of an amorphous-silicon optically addressed nematic liquid crystal SLM is reported. 1.

Spatial light modulators and their applications

SPIE Proceedings, 1991
An optical neural network system using a microchannel plate spatial light modulator (MSLM) and a computer-generated hologram (CGH) displayed on a liquid crystal TV (LCTV) display device are described. In the optical three-layer neural network, the back-propagation learning algorithm is successfully demonstrated with the uniformity of +/- 35% in ...

Spatial Light Modulation

2009
In chapter 4 the so-called classical optical elements were introduced in some detail. Advanced scientific and technological optical systems require more sophisticated elements, in particular interface devices that provide a conversion between electronic and optical signals.

Realtime spatial light modulator

Optics Communications, 1979
Abstract A spatial light modulator using oil film deformation by variation of surface tension has been developed that is sensitive in the range 1–20 μm. The operation and the basic parameters are discussed.
