title: Effects of quadratic phase distortion on correlator performance.
abstract: The deformable mirror spatial light modulator (SLM) has an inherent distortion characteristic that can be approximated as a square-law transfer function. We examine the result of this distortion when this SLM is used in an optical correlator.
