Simulation-Based Approach for Programming a Spatial Light Modulator for Deterministic fs-Laser Writing of NV-Centers in Diamond
- To generate deterministically placed vacancies in a diamond crystal, a high spatial-temporal energy density must be achieved in the crystal. Consequently, the wavefront of a fs-laser shall be corrected via a spatial light modulator (SLM) prior to entering the high numerical aperture focusing optics. This work presents an optical model that allows for calculating the phase mask to be imposed by the SLM. To validate the accuracy of the model, crystal samples of different thickness are used in a test setup to intentionally introduce aberrations. The model is verified via comparing such wavefront measurements with the model predictions.
