A spatial light modulator with full WUXGA/HDTV resolution (1920 × 1200 pixels) and a pixel pitch of 8.1 μm has been introduced by Holoeye Photonics AG. Based on a reflective liquid-crystal-on-silicon microdisplay, the LC-R 1080 can be used to modulate coherent and incoherent light spatially in amplitude and phase, where the electro-optical modulation function can be modified by a computer using Windows software. The instrument can be plugged directly into a computer graphics card by the DVI interface. Long flex extensions and a compact display size facilitate integration into optical systems.
