SPATIAL LIGHT MODULATOR, OPTICAL PROCESSOR, COUPLING PRISM AND METHOD FOR USING COUPLING PRISM

摘要

Mirrors (3, 7) are arranged on a vertical reference straight line (9), and a reflection type SLM (5) is arranged at a position deviated in a vertical direction from the vertical reference straight line (9). Input light inputted along the vertical reference straight line (9) is reflected by the mirror (3) and enters the reflection type SLM (5). The light modulated by the reflection type SLM (5) and reflected by an element reflecting plane (5c) is reflected by the mirror (7) and is outputted as the vertical reference straight line (9).
