Description
Optical beam steering has a wide range of applications in optical memory, optical communication, and free-space interconnections. A variety of techniques to implement optical beam steering have been reported by means of electromechanical, acousto-optic, and electro-optic effects. Optical phased-array beam steering implemented in lithium tantalate, lithium niobate crystals, and liquid crystal were reported. Fontus Applied Technologies proposes to develop a novel beam steering system, which is based on a novel design to achieve state-of-the-art performance in several critical areas.
