Abstract

The combined use of the photoelectric and electron-optic properties of BSO crystal leads to realize spatia light modulation. Under some condition BSO crystal can become birefringent depending on a local illuminance. The relationship between the distributions of illuminance and birefringence will be discussed. This spatial light modulator can work in real-time, which converts illuminance into transparence. The experiment shows, in order to increase the sensitivity of BSO crystal, an electric field 6 kv/cm at an atmosphere pressure 15 X 10⁵ Pa should be applied to BSO crystal. With BSO crystal we have measured 3D deformation by means of real-time holography.
