lcos_multispot_pattern

Create a multispot pattern via phase modulation using a LCOS-SLM.

LCOS multispot phase pattern

The repo contains:

  • patternlib.py: the library for generating the multispot pattern.
  • pattern_server.py: a script to start a "pattern server" listening for pattern parameters and returning 2D arrays containing the pattern. This server is used by LCOS_LabVIEW to obain LCOS patterns (LabVIEW and python communicate via a local socket).
  • installer.cfg: configuration for building an NSIS installer for a stand-alone installation of pattern_server.py using pynsist.

The other files are just notebooks GUIs for playing around with generating the pattern and visualizing it using QT5 or jupyter notebook widgets.

Dependencies

  • python 3.5+
  • numpy 1.10+
  • pyyaml 3.12
