Class Information
Number: 359/291
Name: Optical: systems and elements > Optical modulator > Light wave temporal modulation (e.g., frequency, amplitude, etc.) > By changing physical characteristics (e.g., shape, size or contours) of an optical element > Shape or contour of light control surface altered
Description: Subject matter wherein the light property is controlled by means of a light control surface which is temporarily altered or modified in some way so as to produce distortions in the surface contours which differ significantly from the normal or unmodified surface contours.
