Implementation of a Phase Only Spatial Light Modulator as an Atmospheric Turbulence Simulator at 1550 nm

Figure 4

(a) Light is reflected from the SLM into the Spiricon camera with no diffraction grating phase screen displayed on the SLM. (b) Light is reflected from the SLM displaying a diffraction grating phase screen. The gamma table for a linear phase response has been uploaded to the SLM. This shows 72% diffraction efficiency into the first order.
