Abstract:

Spatial light modulators are important components for modern optical systems and can be used in a lot of different applications. We give an overview about available device technologies and their characterization. Also a brief overview of already implemented dynamic holographic applications using spatial light modulators is given. We then describe in detail the optical design of a holographic optical tweezers system for a Zeiss Axiovert 200 and report on results for the fast implementation of the hologram computation on a NVidia 7800 GTX based graphics board and show results concerning the three dimensional manipulation of objects.
