<p>A deformable membrane type of spatial light modulator (10) may be modified and used with a lens (16) for beam steering applications. A reflective membrane (11) is deformed by one or more of a multiplicity of underlying address electrodes (14), such that it has a different center of curvature depending on which electrode is being energized. An incoming beam is incident on the membrane and reflected from it. A lens (16) collimates light reflected from the membrane so that a beam is reflected in a desired direction relative to the incoming beam. <IMAGE></p> |
