- Abstract
- For this research, we have developed key technologies for a 1.5 쨉m pixel pitch spatial light modulator (SLM) using Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) phase change material. To uniformly modulate each pixel, we designed a lateral pixel structure in which a heating current flows through a bottom indium tin oxide layer. To check hologram reconstruction both after multilevel fabrication processes and before implementing full source and driver circuits, we fabricated an 8 K × 2 K hologram on the topology by changing the GST film's phase using laser irradiation. To overcome the limitation of SLM size, we tested a physical tiling structure and found that flatness of tiled SLMs was the most important factor in the realization of holographic displays.
