Photonic and Sensing Systems based on CMOS Backplanes (PASSBACK)<br />
This project aims to develop high quality prototype phase only liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS)<br />
devices for applications including holographic projection systems and telecommunications<br />
modules. The project is establishing equipment and processes for a wide range <strong>of</strong> additive<br />
processing based on the Silicon CMOS platform including opto-hybrids and devices.<br />
Aim:<br />
Progress:<br />
An ideal phase<br />
hologram can<br />
manipulate light<br />
beams without<br />
loss <strong>of</strong> photons.<br />
• To develop in-house LCOS prototype device fabrication processes for high-spec<br />
LCOS devices<br />
• To build prototype devices for various applications<br />
• Successfully commissioned a 20 step semi-automatic LCOS prototyping process<br />
• Phase-only holographic projection engine prototype built and tested in collaboration<br />
with commercial partner, ALPS<br />
