USPTO Abstract

For the production of a SLM device, one mounts a spatial light modulator (SLM) (2) on a substrate (3) of the same material as the main material of the SLM (2) to be juxtaposed with the substrate (3). Particularly, silicon based SLMs (2) are mounted on a silicon substrate (3). This leads to arrays of SLMs (2) that maintain a high accuracy with respect to position of the SLMs (2) and planarity. To further improve the planarity, it is preferred to mount the SLMs (2) on the substrate (3) by soldering, using the self-aligning effect of solder connections (20).
