May 24, 2016
The X13138 series liquid-crystal-on-silicon spatial light modulator has 1272 × 1024 pixel resolution and provides precise phase control.

The X13138 series liquid-crystal-on-silicon spatial light modulator has 1272 × 1024 pixel resolution and provides precise phase control. A direct voltage controls a liquid-crystal layer that modulates the wavefront of a light beam without changing its intensity or polarization state. The device works with high-power lasers when used with a cooler.
