Abstract
We present a method for binary phase spatial modulation that uses phot oinduced anisotropy in a chalcogenide amorphous As2S3 thin film and it s application to binary phase-only filters in a VanderLugt optical cor relator. The time-dependent light-transmission properties of the photo illuminated As2S3 thin film are analytically examined by use of third- order nonlinear polarization theory. Experimental results on optical c orrelation are discussed.
