Reconfigurable Optically Induced Three-dimensional Complex Nonlinear Photonic Quasicrystals
We present a versatile fabrication approach for scalable complex 3D photonic quasicrystals (PQCs) by a programmable spatial light modulator-assisted single step optical induction of refractive index modulation. We demonstrate for the first time the fabrication of higher order rotational symmetry reconfigurable nonlinear 3D axial PQCs and variants of complex 3D PQCs in externally biased SBN:Ce p...
متن کاملReconfigurable all-diffractive optical filters using phase-only spatial light modulators.
We demonstrate a reconfigurable optical filter implemented using a phase-only two-dimensional liquid-crystal-on-silicon spatial light modulator. To achieve this we utilize two different approaches leading to two different configurations in the modulator. The first one, based on a spatially patterned diffractive lens, permits us to obtain the desired spectrum along the optical axis and, in the s...
