Abstract
An apparatus comprises a first mirror; a second mirror; a modulation layer positioned between the first mirror and the second mirror and comprising a plurality of modulation regions; a diffraction layer positioned between the modulation layer and the second mirror, and an input port admitting a light beam into the apparatus. The light beam passes through the diffraction layer and is modulated by the modulation layer to create a first modulated beam before being reflected by the first mirror, the first mirror reflecting the first modulated beam toward the second mirror, the second mirror reflecting the first modulated beam toward the modulation layer to be modulated for at least a second time.
