Abstract
The grating light valve(GLV)is a diffractive MOEMS spatial light modulator,and it has been successfully applied in the computer-to-plate(CTP)system by modulating laser beams.A simplified grating light valve optical model is put forward,and the optical characteristics of GLV is analyzed according to Fraunhofer single-slit diffraction theory and multiple beam interference theory.The application of grating light valve in thermal CTP system is described,and the structure and imaging principle of GLV optical write engine are analyzed.The digital imaging process of the GLV-based thermal CTP system is concluded,which provides the theory basis for the domestic printing enterprise to use the thermal imaging technology.
