Abstract
The fabrication and optical characterisation of a 4x4 array of asymmet ric FabrY-Perot (AFP) electro-optic modulators is reported. The electr o-optic material used, a cross-linked polymer based on an azo-benzene derivative, offers the potential for high time-bandwidth modulation. T he uniformity of the spatial light modulator is evaluated, and a contr ast ratio exceeding 4:1 can be obtained simultaneously at each of the 16 pixel positions.
