Integral imaging using phase-only LCoS spatial light modulators as Fresnel lenslet arrays.

چکیده
We present a digital integral imaging system. A Fresnel lenslet array pattern is written on a phase-only LCoS spatial light modulator device (SLM) to replace the regular analog lenslet array in a conventional integral imaging system. We theoretically analyze the capture part of the proposed system based on Fresnel wave propagation formulation. Because of pixelation and quantization of the lenslet array pattern, higher diffraction orders and multiple focal points emerge. Because of the multiple focal planes introduced by the discrete lenslets, multiple image planes are observed. The use of discrete lenslet arrays also causes some other artifacts on the recorded elemental images. The results reduce to those available in the literature when the effects introduced by the discrete nature of the lenslets are omitted. We performed simulations of the capture part. It is possible to obtain the elemental images with an acceptable visual quality. We also constructed an optical integral imaging system with both capture and display parts using the proposed discrete Fresnel lenslet array written on a SLM. Optical results when self-luminous objects, such as an LED array, are used indicate that the proposed system yields satisfactory results.

LCOS 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 کاملLow voltage blue phase liquid crystal for spatial light modulators.
We demonstrated a low-voltage polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) for phase-only modulation with a liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS). A new device configuration was developed, which allows the incident laser beam to traverse the BPLC layer four times before exiting the LCoS. As a result, the 2π phase change voltage is reduced to below 24 V in the visible region. The response time...

We report on a new beam-forming system for generating high intensity programmable optical spikes using so-called matched-filtering Generalized Phase Contrast (mGPC) applying two consumer handheld pico-projectors.

متن کاملPhase calibration of spatial light modulators by means of Fresnel images
Reliable application of spatial light modulators (SLMs) as programmable diffractive optical elements requires a thorough calibration. In this paper, we propose a method for calibrating SLMs based on the evaluation of Fresnel images. Fresnel images generated by a binary phase diffraction grating consist of binary irradiance distributions whose visibility depends on the phase modulation. By displ...
متن کاملFull complex Fresnel holograms displayed on liquid crystal devices
We propose a method to display full complex Fresnel holograms by adding the information displayed on two analogue ferroelectric liquid crystal spatial light modulators. One of them works in real-only configuration and the other in imaginary-only mode. The Fresnel holograms are computed by backpropagating an object at a selected distance with the Fresnel transform. Then, displaying the real and ...
