Background:

Liquid-crystal spatial light modulators (LCSLMs) require precise calibration and aberration correction for optimal performance.
Existing calibration methods can be complex and sensitive to crosstalk, limiting their practical application.

Purpose of the Study:

To improve the convergence and reduce the complexity of phase-retrieval-based calibration techniques.
To address and compensate for the detrimental effects of LCSLM crosstalk on calibration accuracy.

Main Methods:

A random-illumination-phase-retrieval-based approach was investigated for LCSLM calibration.
The relationship between random phase probability density functions and light intensity patterns was analyzed.
A novel algorithm was developed to compensate for crosstalk by analyzing phase-to-intensity relationships.

Main Results:

The proposed method demonstrated improved convergence compared to standard phase-retrieval calibration.
The crosstalk compensation algorithm effectively mitigated performance degradation caused by LCSLM crosstalk.
Simulations confirmed the effectiveness and superior performance of the developed algorithms over existing methods.

Conclusions:

The random-illumination-phase-retrieval method offers a simplified and effective approach to LCSLM calibration.
The developed crosstalk compensation algorithm significantly enhances calibration accuracy and robustness.
This work provides a practical solution for improving LCSLM performance in various optical applications.
