Analytical study on arbitrary waveform generation by MEMS micro mirror arrays

Abstract: Abstract:We provide analytical modeling and the detailed procedure that is used in recently proposed arbitrary waveform generation technique by using MEMS digital micro-mirror arrays. We estimate the achievable temporal resolution, repetition rate, modulation index and the rise/fall times of the final waveform as figure of merit in the proposed systems. We show that reducing the diffraction limit via increasing the ratio of beam size to lens focal length (>0.075) and the spatial eScholarship provides open acce… Show more

“…In particular, the DMD chipset modulated the light by its 2D pixel arrays. From this modulation property, it has been deployed in many optical applications as a spatial light modulator to generate optical arbitrary waveforms, [56,57] beam steerer for lidar applications, [58,59] beam deflector for fast dispersive laser scanning systems. [60,61] Here, the DMD chipset functioned as a photomask to generate dynamic optical patterns.…”

“…6) using the FTS and the spectrometer. We compare the measured ILS with an analytical model of the spectral response, 15 assuming a gaussian light distribution exiting the single-mode incoupling fiber with the specified mode field diameter. The analytical model is in agreement with the FTS measurement, indicating a good alignment of the setup (see Fig.…”

“…2, that is defined as a function of groove density 𝐺 and the first order diffraction angle 𝛽. For a beam with wavelength λ, and incident angle α, the first order diffraction angle 𝛽 is given by the grating equation sin(α) + sin(β) = λG which reduces to 2sin(β) = λG when α = β in a Littrow configuration [29]. To develop a formulation for the optical force at the focal plane, we assume operation under the Rayleigh scattering limit and that the particles are polarizable, such as dielectric particles.…”
