Abstract
An optical phase modulator is an optical element used to control the phase of light. They have
multiple applications, for example ophthalmological applications, tunable zooms, beam steering,
correction of aberrations, astronomy, 3D vision applications, etc. The displays and photonics
application group (GDAF) of Carlos III university of Madrid (UC3M) in collaboration with CEMDATIC
of Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) have extended the knowledge in this field by the proposal
of several advanced micro-optical phase modulators. These, obtain with simply topologies either
common optical elements, e.g. microlenses for autostereoscopic devices [1], aberration controllers
for rectangular micro-optical elements [2] and microlenses with reduced aberrations and tunable
rotation [3], or singular optical elements, e.g. micro-axicon arrays [3] and tunable optical vortices [5].
