spatial light modulator News
Amplitude-Only Modulator Targets Photonic Device Efficiency
EXETER, England, Aug. 21, 2023 — A thin-film, amplitude-only spatial light modulator made from phase-change-based material was developed by researchers at the University of Exeter and the Institute of Optics in Madrid. The device operates in reflection and modulates the amplitude...
Spatial Light Modulation Gauges How Lenses Slow Progress of Myopia
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 30, 2023 — Myopia, or nearsightedness, is one of the most common ocular disorders worldwide and a leading cause of visual impairment in children. Although specialized eyeglass lenses have been clinically tested to treat myopia progression, an in-depth optical...
Meadowlark Optics Acquires Boulder Nonlinear Systems
FREDERICK, Colo., May 2, 2023 — Meadowlark Optics has announced its acquisition of Boulder Nonlinear Systems (BNS). Both companies are based in Colorado and produce optical components used in numerous scientific research fields and industries. Meadowlark previously purchased the...
Programmable Device Enables Optical Control at Unprecedented Speeds
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 30, 2022 — An international team led by MIT researchers has developed a spatial light modulator (SLM) that promises greater control of light at orders of magnitude more quickly than commercial devices. The team also developed a fabrication process to ensure...
Hamamatsu, Fraunhofer Develop Joint Application Lab
AACHEN, Germany, Sept. 8, 2022 — Together with Hamamatsu, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology (Fraunhofer ILT) launched an application lab for advanced laser material processing with ultrashort pulsed (USP) laser radiation, located in Aachen, Germany. The partners jointly...
3D Holographic Display Achieves Wide Viewing Angle
BEIJING, July 15, 2022 — A Beihang University research team created a holographic 3D display system that widens its viewing angle and enlarges image size through the simultaneous implementation of two different hologram generation methods. The system features a tunable...
Team Develops Largest-of-Its-Kind Quantum Simulator
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 14, 2021 — A team of physicists from the Harvard-MIT Center for Ultracold Atoms and other universities has developed a special type of quantum computer known as a programmable quantum simulator capable of operating with 256 quantum bits, or...
Holographic Display Improvements Enhance AR, VR
STANFORD, Calif., Jan. 29, 2021 — Stanford University researchers have developed an approach to improve the image quality and contrast of holographic displays. The technology, as a result, may help to improve near-eye displays for virtual and augmented reality applications. The...
Laguerre-Gaussian Mode Sorter Could Improve Internet Speeds and Image Quality
BRISBANE, Australia, May 28, 2019 — A new optical device that splits light beams into modes, with each mode acting as an independent channel of information, could be used to pack hundreds of modes into a single optical fiber, increasing the amount of information that the fiber can...
Researchers Control Speed of Light in Free Space
ORLANDO, Fla., April 5, 2019 — Using a technique that someday help alleviate data congestion and prevent information loss, University of Central Florida (UCF) researchers have developed a way to speed up and slow down a light pulse. The new technique allows the speed of the pulse...
New Laser Architecture Taps Coherent Light to Probe and Control Matter
MENLO PARK and STANFORD, Calif., Nov. 26, 2018 — A new laser architecture called the Universal Light Modulator, developed by researchers affiliated with the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University, uses coherent light to engineer complex light structures for probing and...
CAOS Smart Camera Captures Targets in Extreme Contrast Scenarios
Jan 31, 2017 — Imaging electromagnetic radiation is of fundamental importance to a number of fields, from medicine and the biological sciences, to security and defense. Often, demanding contrast imaging scenarios arise that call for a high instantaneous linear...
iView, Forth Dimension Displays Collaborate for SLPs
DALGETY BAY, Scotland, Aug. 30, 2016 — Pico projection optical module provider iView Ltd. and microdisplay developer Forth Dimension Displays Ltd. have entered into an agreement to develop, manufacture and sell structured light projectors (SLPs). SLPs are a key component of 3D automated...
Meadowlark Optics Acquires Spatial Light Modulator Product Line
FREDERICK, Colo., March 27, 2015 — Meadowlark Optics Inc. has acquired the spatial light modulator (SLM) product line from Cambridge Research & Instrumentation Inc. of Woburn, Mass. The 1 × 128 and 1 × 640-pixel liquid crystal SLMs have been added to...
AOM Reaches Unprecedented Speeds
BRISTOL, England, Jan. 7, 2015 — A new acousto-optic modulator can steer laser beams at unprecedented speeds, potentially enabling finer light control for microscopy and other applications. The device features a liquid-filled cavity surrounded by a cylindrical ultrasound transducer...
Brain Mapping Seeks New Paths
NEW YORK, March 10, 2014 — New imaging techniques could build new roadways in neural mapping and provide a better understanding of how the brain functions.
Antenna on a Chip Zips Through 3-D ‘Free Space’
HOUSTON, Nov. 21, 2012 — A new micron-scale spatial light modulator (SLM) works in 3-D “free space” and runs orders of magnitude faster than those used in sensing and imaging devices, and it holds great potential for imaging, display, holographic, measurement and remote...
An app for your optical traps
May 1, 2011 — Scientists and nonspecialists alike now can easily manipulate microparticles, particularly for research in molecular biology, right on their iPads, thanks to a new app called iTweezers. The application was developed by optics researchers at the...
