METHODS AND APPARATUS TO CALIBRATE SPATIAL LIGHT MODULATORS

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus to calibrate spatial light modulators are disclosed. Examples include processor circuitry to execute and/or instantiate instructions to provide a greyscale image to a spatial light modulator (SLM) to define voltages to be applied to individual pixels of the SLM. The voltages associated with pixel values in the greyscale image. The pixel values arranged in a double-slit grating pattern. The SLM to produce an interference pattern based on the double-slit grating pattern. The processor circuitry is to determine a phase difference between first and second gratings of the double-slit grating pattern based on the interference pattern. The processor circuitry is to generate a phase curvature based on the phase difference.
