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´s Spatial Light Modulator systems are based on translucent (LCD) or reflective (LCOS) liquid crystal microdisplays.
HOLOEYE Spatial Light Modulators are based on Liquid Crystal microdisplays. Physical properties of LC materials show a temperature dependence and a change in temperature may influence different optical SLM properties (phase shift, switching speed, phase stability…). SLM displays have their own power dissipation, which varies between products and configurations. To keep the performance / temperature stable, an active thermal management…
