Image processing by a spatial light modulator utilizing the Pockels effect

Abstract

The 'new fields' or 'superconformal functions' on N = 1 super Riemann surfaces introduced recently by Rogers and Langer are shown to coincide with the Abelian differentials (plus constants), viewed as a subset of the functions on the associated N = 2 super Riemann surface. We confirm that, as originally defined, they do not form a super vector space.

On-site holographic interference method for fast surface topology measurements and reconstruction

“…These devices are able to modulate light spatially in amplitude and/or phase and the optical information to be displayed can be taken directly from the dedicated software or an image source and can be addressed by a computer interface. In recent decades, SLMs were successfully implemented in many applications such as: wave front correction [3,4], compensating time-varying aberration of optical fields [5], compensation of thermal phase distortion occurring in high-energy Nd:glass amplifiers [6], beam steering [7], holographic optical tweezers [8], multifocal multiphoton microscopy [9], edge contrast improvement in light microscopy [10], holographic data storage [11], image processing and analysis [12], beam-quality measurements [13]. Also, they can act like programmable phase masks [14,15], diffractive microlenses [16], multiple beam splitters [17], optical switches [18] or beam shapers [19].…”
