Abstract

A spatial light modulator is being developed that takes a time dependent electrical signal and formats it into a two dimensional array of phase modulators. This is accomplished with a charge coupled device to shift electrical charge into a two dimensional array, and metallized membranes which deform by an amount proportional to the charge. Preliminary results indicate adequate membrane sensitivity and frequency response to permit real time operation of large time-bandwidth product light modulators.
