Mueller matrix polarimetry has been used to determine operational efficiency and material
quality in lead-lanthanum-zirconium-titanate (PLZT) electro-optic modulators. PLZT is a …

This chapter describes an efficient approach to generating light beams with arbitrary
intensity profile and phase distribution. Accordingly, a fast method is described to …

We present numerical and experimental results for a rotation-invariant pattern recognition
method using a joint transform correlator. The reference image input to the correlator along …

The accuracy and flexibility of the technique proposed by Davis et al.[Appl. Opt. 35, 2488
(1996)] for the encoding of the amplitude and the phase of a filter onto a single liquid-crystal …

A high resolution Mueller matrix imaging polarimetry test bed has been constructed and
calibrated that has unique capabilities for characterizing optoelectronic devices, such as …

In this chapter, we review the use of spatial light modulators SLMs to display reconfigurable
digital holograms capable of modifying and shaping laser beams. In order to achieve this …

A simple method of measuring the phase-modulation properties of liquid-crystal televisions
(LCTV's) that vary with the driving gray-scale level is presented. The theoretical derivation of …

Spatial light modulators whose phase modulation capability (PMC) exceeds 2π are strongly
desirable. A double-pass configuration was evaluated to enhance PMC of twisted nematic …

Twisted-nematic liquid crystal televisions (LCTVs) are currently widely used as spatial light
modulators in coherent optical processing systems. With such devices,phase-'orintensity …

Off-the-shelf spatial light modulators (SLMs) like those commonly included in video
projection devices have been seldom used for the compensation of eye aberrations, mainly …
