The first performs the necessary amplitude modulation, also introducing a phase change. Meadowlark Optics award-winning Spatial Light Modulators (SLMs) provide precision retardance control for spatially varying phase or amplitude requirements. Our SLMs consist of liquid crystal (LC) pixels, each independently addressed, acting as separate variable retarders. Instead, we will consider a modern derivative of the above, namely shaping light with computer-generated holograms (digital holo-grams) using spatial light modulators (SLMs). 6 Digital holography for structured light has enabled many new advances, ranging from classical to quantum physics, including.

The set_phases() method takes a scalar or a 2-D array of phase values in radians, which is wrapped to the range [0, 2π) and displayed on the SLM. This function calls update() by default to send the image
Spatial control of the phase and amplitude of a laser beam is useful for applications ranging from imaging and holography to interferometry and optical tweezers, reports Neil Savage.
