Abstract
We present a multiple-input, single-output, weakly nonlinear model of spatial light modulators by use of a second-order Volterra series and describe an experimental method to measure the nonlinear transfer func tions by means of sinusoidal perturbation and synchronous detection wi th a lock-in amplifier. We also present an application of this method to a liquid-crystal light valve. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
