TecnOPTO Home
TecnOPTO (Grupo de Tecnologias Ópticas y Optoelectronicas) is the Group of Optics and Optoelectronic Technologies at University Miguel Hernández, in Elche, Spain.
Our group develops different research lines, all within the field of Physical Optics and Optolectronics. We are located at the University Miguel Hernández, in the beautiful city of Elche, in Spain.
We enjoy doing research and working in projects with collaborators all over the world. We also enjoy teaching and involving our students in our projects.
Our last paper is published in Optics & Lasers in Engineering entitled Analysis of diffraction gratings displayed in spatial light modulators at the Nyquist limit: Application to the triplicator grating.
Here we analyze diffraction gratings displayed on a pixelated SLM at its spatial resolution limit (Nyquist limit) i.e., with largest diffraction angle, where the binary phase profile is the only alternative. We use the Fourier transform theory to analyze the binary phase grating in a pixelated device in terms of the pixel size, fill factor and phase difference between the two levels in the grating.
Experimental verification is provided by encoding binary phase triplicator gratings with different periods on a high-resolution liquid-crystal on silicon SLM. The effect of the device pixelation and pixel crosstalk on the diffraction efficiency and on the conditions to obtain a Nyquist triplicator phase grating are studied.
