Abstract

The paper reviews two types of organic-inorganic hybrid structures: electro-optically addressed and all optically addressed that can be used as spatial light modulator devices, operating in a transmission mode. Both hybrid devices are assembled by inorganic Bi12SiO20 (BSO) crystals and organic liquid crystals (LC). The electro-optically controlled device demonstrates very high beam-amplification values at Raman-Nath regime of diffraction whereas all optically controlled device operates at Bragg matched regime of diffraction allowing sub-micron spatial resolution. Phase modulation ability has been demonstrated supporting possibilities for applications in adaptive optics, information processing and display technologies.
