摘要:
The present invention relates to a phase modulating apparatus capable of highly accurately and easily correcting the phase modulation characteristic of a reflective electric address spatial light modulator even when a condition of input light is changed. In the LCOS phase modulating apparatus, an input unit inputs the condition of the input light, and a processing unit sets an input value for each pixel. A correction value deriving unit determines a correction condition according to the condition of the input light. A control input value converting unit converts the input value set for each pixel into a corrected input value based on the correction condition. An LUT processing unit converts the corrected input value into a voltage value, and drives each pixel by using a drive voltage equivalent to the converted voltage value.

A light source device 1 includes a laser light source 10 and an optical phase modulator 15 or the like. The optical phase modulator 15 inputs coherent light output from the laser light source 10 and transmitted through a beam splitter 14, phase-modulates the light according to the position on a beam cross section of the light, and outputs the phase-modulated light to the beam splitter 14.

Thus, a laser light source capable of easily controlling the transverse mode of the laser oscillation light can be realized.

A phase-modulating apparatus includes a spatial light modulator, an input value setting unit, a plurality of sets of reference data, a converting unit, and a driving unit. The input value setting unit sets an input value for each pixel. Each set of reference data corresponds to at least one pixel. The converting unit converts an input value inputted for each pixel to a control value by referencing the corresponding set of reference data. The driving unit converts the control value to a voltage value. The driving unit drives each pixel with a drive voltage corresponding to the voltage value. Each set of reference data correlates a plurality of first values from which input values are taken, and a plurality of second values from which control values are taken to ensure that the relationship between the plurality of first values and phase modulation amounts attained by the corresponding at least one pixel is a prescribed linear relationship.
