液晶空间光调制器在自适应光学中的应用

Application of spatial light modulators using liquid crystal in adaptive optics

本文主要包括两方面的内容，一方面描述用液晶光阀产生空间与时间性能可控的小尺寸薄相位屏；另一方面则讨论用液晶空间光调制器实现波前相位畸变校正的可能性。从而表明，这类价格低廉、结构简单而性能可靠的非线性光学器件可望在高性能新型自适应光学系统中得到广泛应用。

Two problems are presented. One of them is that a liquid crystal light valve can be used for the creation of small scale phase screen with controllable characteristics. Another is that a liquid crystal spatial light modulator can correct the phase distortion of wave front.
