Facing the recent developments in the area of (quasi) continuous wave lasers towards
higher power the Fraunhofer IPMS introduces a novel light modulator incorporating an …

" One product, one process": This MEMS law is true for micro-optical modulators, too and
thus puts a high load on every product and technology development team. On the other …

This paper focuses on high-speed optical MEMS Scanners and Micro Mirror Arrays. Devices
supporting spot/pixel rateshigher than 10 Mpixel/s are considered and discussed regarding …

The Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems (IPMS) has been developing and
manufacturing micromirror arrays for more than 20 years. While originally focusing on …

Fraunhofer IPMS has developed a one-dimensional high-speed spatial light modulator in
cooperation with Micronic Mydata AB. This SLM is the core element of the Swedish …

A variable curvature mirror is a powerful device that can increase the field of view of optical
interferometers. Such a mirror is being developed for the coherent combined focus of the …

For miniature laser projection displays the laser beam is swept very fast back and forth with
a MEMS mirror. This paper presents an innovative design for such a MEMS mirror. Both the …

Novel types of thin-film microoptical components have been found very advantageous for
beam shaping of high-power and ultrashort-pulse lasers. Measuring techniques, nonlinear …

Light and electricity are said to be the all purpose tools for the next decades. Photonic
Microsystems combine this tools in an ideal manner: They are electronically addressable …

Recently, there has been substantial progress in the development of ultra-compact image
projection systems with dimensions clearly below the size of products based on DMD TM …
