Free-space optical communication (FSOC) is a critical solution to meeting the global surge in demand for secure, high-bandwidth data links. However, the adoption of these systems is often throttled by the bulk and complexity of traditional mechanical steering components. In this work, we break this bottleneck by replac...

Wavefront quality often dominates throughput of device such as optical cross-connect switch and free-space optical communication. MEMS SLM enables flexible beam routing and steering, however it is known that the deformation of MEMS backbone. Or warp of the die introduces wave aberration due to the reflective nature of...
Texas Instruments Phase Light Modulators (TI-PLM) is a MEMS based device for modulating the phase of light. It plays an important role in computational holographic display. However, due to its relatively large pixel pitch (10.8 um for 0.67 VIS PLM) and limited phase modulating levels (16 levels), the image quality suff...
