Re: Beam Splitter Problems

If you feed your reference beam into a spatial filter, the simple thin plate beamsplitter may work as the reflected beam would be focused outside the pinhole.

Re: online ray optics simulator

Thanks
I use this one for 2D optics, which is quite simple. It is avail. in english

Re: fresh air intake for lab

Thank you for sharing.
So you have air intake and "outtake" in your lab? From what I understand this blows new and warmed air into your lab, and I suppose you have an air extraction somewhere?
Thank you

Re: Bayfol HX polymer

There are some papers out there on shifting the HX200 material. From what I recall it involves using various materials to laminate onto the HX200. One of those articles had a table listing material vs shifting

Re: resent color hologram on bayfol

Can you explain the reason for heating after exposing (I think Zilux requires this but did not know about Bayfol) as well how you use water to mount on glass?
Thanks!

Re: Bayfol

Thanks for this interesting info. What is the point of using UV glue to laminate the film on both sides? I mean, the side with the photopolymer already sticks to the glass plate by itself, right? Is it to have it more permanently afixed? Or is it that using UV resin makes it easier to laminate witho...

Re: Osram PL530 530nm laser diodes tested @75mw SLM

Thank you @Soda and @Holomaker, I am surprized a regular diode could not be modulated fast enough for pico-displays. What's more, losing single longitudinal mode would probably be a bonus in case of a pico-projector since they get into large efforts to despeckle the images. But I am probably missing...

Re: Osram PL530 530nm laser diodes tested @75mw SLM

Greetings, Just received my RGB module from Dave and am now reading through the various resources on how to power it up. Anyone knows if this laser will maintain beam characteristics (Power, SLM, coherence length...) if modulated at a few KHz? I'd like to try and use it as a cheap source for my holo...
