The LC 2012 is a basic spatial light modulator based on a translucent LCD microdisplays with 1024 x 768 pixel and 36 μm pixel pitch.
The LC 2012 can be used for phase or amplitude modulation in the visible range. The LC 2012 provides a phase shift of about 2 π at 450 nm, about 1.8 π at 532 nm and around 1 π at 800 nm.
The drive electronics are packaged in a compact box for easy integration for optical setups.
The LC 2012 uses a standard DVI/HDMI interface and brightness and contrast settings can be changed using an USB interface. No additional software or hardware is required to use the SLM.
