Abstract
The application of photonic technologies in space and enhanced environments has progressed steadily. The first survivable fiber optic point to point links were demonstrated in 19841, paving the way for other proposed experiments including acousto-optic devices2. Radiation hardness studies of integrated3 and coupled wave optic4 devices have been performed. Photonic hardness standards are progressing from the studies of international round robin teams5,6. However, limited data exists on the radiation responses of organic spatial light modulators7 (SLMs) or acousto-optic modulators in radiation environments. This paper partially addresses this issue by examining the radiation response of a SLM.
