Sumario:This chapter describes an efficient approach to generating light beams with arbitrary intensity profile and phase distribution. Accordingly, a fast method is described to characterize liquid crystal displays based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer and fringe analysis in the Fourier domain. Then, the double-pixel hologram Arrizón’s approach is reviewed. This approach is able to generate an on-axis computer-generated hologram into a low-resolution twisted-nematic liquid crystal for encoding arbitrary complex modulations. Furthermore, a fast algorithm to map holographic cells based on the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) classifier is introduced in order to generate computer-generated holograms faster than the conventional calculation. Finally, two beam profiles are produced with the described approach and assessed at the entrance pupil and the depth of focus of a high-NA microscope objective.
