The reflected mode magneto-optic spatial light modulator (R-MOSLM) has been developed over the past couple of years. This development has led to a device that has state-of-the-art performance and is producible. This SLM device is truly compatible with semiconductor manufacturing techniques and is now being fabricated in a production environment. Performance details of individual devices is presented elsewhere. However, in this paper we discuss the measured parameters of multiple devices for statistics, discuss yield and packaging, and describe the impact of its manufacturability on cost. The system description of the correlator system using these devices is reported in a companion paper.
