Benchmarking analysis of computer generated holograms for complex wavefront shaping using pixelated phase modulators.

Wavefront shaping with spatial light modulators (SLMs) enables aberration correction, especially for light control through complex media, like biological tissues and multimode fibres. High-fidelity light field shaping is associated with the calculation of computer generated holograms (CGHs), of which there are a variety of algorithms. The achievable performance of CGH algorithms depends on various parameters.
