Reflective optical phase modulator based on high-contrast grating mirrors

We propose a reflective phase-only modulator formed by two layers of high-contrast grating reflectors. By arranging such optical phase modulators in a 2D array, ultra-fast Si-based phase-only spatial light modulators can be realized.
