    摘要: A liquid crystal spatial light modulator for adjusting an optical signal is configured in such a manner that a region of one element is partitioned into two regions so as to perform intensity modulation in one region and phase modulation in the other region. Since the region for performing the intensity modulation and the region for performing the phase modulation can be formed by partitioning one region of the liquid crystal spatial light modulator, only one element allows adjusting functions, both the optical signal intensity modulation and phase modulation.

    摘要: A means and method are disclosed for performing frequency-multiplexed logic, amplification, and energy beam control functions on individual channels simultaneously within a single device by using a plurality of frequency-multiplexed inputs (10, 11), each having beam sets of matching channel frequencies. A set of interference images (12, 13), one for each channel, are simultaneously produced, and energy from the images is separated to produce a frequency-multiplexed output (17). The individual functions performed on individual channels are the result of constructive and destructive interference within each channel's image.

    摘要: An authentication system using a correlator that correlates an input (84) with a reference (88) wherein at least one of the input and reference comprises a phase volume mask having structures that are each less than about six microns in size and can have an aspect ratio (AR) greater than 1:1 so as to produce a phase encoded random pattern having millions of combinations in a mask that is as small as one square millimeter. The random pattern can be convolved with a second pattern, such as a biometric pattern, to produce a phase convolved mask. The correlator (82) preferably is a nonlinear joint transform correlator that can use 'chirp' encoding. The correlator optically Fourier transforms (98) images of the reference and input that are thereafter nonlinearly transformed and inverse Fourier transformed by a processor (104) to determine authenticity (106, 110). A spatial light modulator (SLM) can be used as an input or reference.

    摘要: The use of binary phase information results in a degradation of performance due to the coarseness of the quantisation of the phase data. Furthermore, binary data results in two correlation peaks being formed in the output plane of the Fourier Transforming lens.
    Since it is often required to track a spot on a moving sought object present in the scene. It is convenient to make this spot the centre of the reference image (used to create the reference pattern) for each scale/orientation of the reference object sought. In this case when the spot on the reference object is in the centre of the input plane, the output correlation peak is at the centre of the output plane. Thus, in the tracking process the objective is to keep the correlation peak at the centre of the output plane when the desired region of the scene object is always centrally aligned with a tracking device (e.g. a camera or drill). In the case of the pattern recognition system of the present invention employing binary phase SLMs, this has the added advantage that in these circumstances the output peak has full intensity, the two symmetrical peaks discussed above merging into one strong central peak. This fact can be used as an aid to reference object identification and tracking and exploits the fact that the output peak is not split when the location of the scene reference object matches that of the reference perfectly. Of course, implicit in this statement is the fact that the reference object is identified in the processor.

    摘要: The present invention provides a composite grating structure that performs a programmed complex-valued, spectral filtering function on an input optical signal. The grating consists of a plurality of subgratings. Each subgrating controls the diffraction of a specific optical subbandwidth of light from an operative input direction to an operative output direction imparting a controllable amplitude and phase change onto the specific subbandwidth of light whose diffraction it controls within the overall operative bandwidth. The set of subgratings comprising the composite grating collectively controls the diffraction of an operative bandwidth of light from an operative input direction to an operative output direction. Each composite grating is programmed through their construction or through their dynamic modification to provide desired spectral filtering functions. While the composite gratings can be employed for general spectral filtering applications, they hold especially attractive potential in the area of optical waveform processing, generation, and detection.
