High-throughput FCS using an LCOS spatial light modulator and an 8 × 1 SPAD array
We present a novel approach to high-throughput Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) which enables us to obtain one order of magnitude improvement in acquisition time. Our approach utilizes a liquid crystal on silicon spatial light modulator to generate dynamically adjustable focal spots, and uses an eight-pixel monolithic single-photon avalanche photodiode array. We demonstrate the capab...
متن کاملLCOS Spatial Light Modulators: Trends and Applications
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. Current SLM–based systems use either optical MEMS (microelectromechanical system, [1]) or LCD technology [2]. In this chapter, we review trends and applications of SLMs with focus on liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) technology. Most dev...
متن کاملCharacterization and minimization of flicker in silicon light valves
We have performed systematic characterizations of flicker in silicon light valves. It was found that there were four conduction mechanisms accounting for the flicker. These four mechanisms were residual dc charge on the silicon surface, voltage holding capability of the liquid crystal cell, voltage holding capability of the silicon panel, and parasitic capacitor coupling of the pixel. Major cau...
متن کاملAnamorphic optical transformation of an amplitude spatial light modulator to a complex spatial light modulator with square pixels [invited].
A method is proposed for the construction of a square pixel complex spatial light modulator (SLM) from a commercial oblong full-high-definition (full-HD) amplitude SLM using an anamorphic optical filter. In the proposed scheme, one half-band of the optical Fourier transform of the amplitude-only spatial light field is rejected in the optical Fourier plane and the other half-band is reformatted ...
متن کاملA Spatial Light Modulator Using Bso Crystals
The combmed use of the photoelectnc and electro-optic properttes of the BI,,SIO~~ (BSO)-crystal leads to a new posslblhty of reahzmg a spa&xl hght modulator Under certam geometrical condrtions, whxh will be discussed, It 1s possible to reahze, that the BSO-crystal becomes blrefrmgent depending on the local fiummance, the physxal connection between the dlstnbutlons of blrefrmgence and lllummance...
