Abstract
Sequential speckle reduction methods demand the usage of fast modulators due to the short integration period of human eyes. Here, a nonsequential speckle reduction method by splitting one laser beam with short coherence length into uncorrelated laser subbeams (LSBs) is reported. In order to realize the most efficient speckle reduction, with the help of a polarization beam splitter, we have programmed a reflective spatial light modulator to make the LSBs intensities equivalent. Three uncorrelated LSBs with equivalent light intensity are designed to demonstrate this idea; the speckle contrast ratio is reduced to 0.55, which closes to the expected value of 0.58. This nonsequential speckle reduction method has no requirement of the modulators speed; thus, it has obvious merit comparing with the sequential speckle reduction methods.
