Overview
The SLM-200 is a high-performance spatial light modulator based on LCOS technology. It is a standard model ideal for a wide range of applications that require precise light control. It boasts high-resolution WUXGA (1920 × 1200) and high reproducibility of phase stability of less than 0.001 π (typical value), and enables precise 10-bit phase control (1024 levels). It is used for applications such as wavefront correction, phase pattern control, pulse shaping, and beam shaping, and achieves high-precision optical control in a variety of fields, from research and development to industrial applications.
There is also the SLM-20 model, designed specifically for integration in equipment (compact and low cost).
