Spatial Light Modulators
One of the more complex photonic devices one will encounter as an optical engineer is the spatial light modulator. This is a device that (usually) converts a computer-generated signal into a spatially controlled distribution of intensity or phase, depending on the type of modulator. A very well-known device for intensity modulation is the DLP or…

Coherence
Coherence is perhaps the most interesting property of light and arguably, the effects of interference are at the core of what we consider to be the field of optics. Yet, you don’t have to look too far to find an optics specialist that simply will not have anything to do with it. In practice, we…
