Abstract

See full text

Method and apparatus for forming an array of reflective elements for spatial light modulation. The array includes a substrate supporting electronically addressable actuators, each associated with a corresponding reflective element, a coupling attaching each actuator to the corresponding reflective element to place each reflective element in a substantially planar surface. Each electronically addressable actuator responds to predetermined addressing from a processing circuit to reposition the corresponding reflective element out of the planar surface a predetermined distance identified in the predetermined electronic addressing.
