Abstract: A semiconductor light-emitting device includes a junction between doped semiconductor layers, a first set of multiple independent contacts connected to a first doped layer and a second set of one or more contacts connected to the second doped layer. Multiple conductive vias connect the independent contacts to the first doped layer, enabling differing corresponding via currents to be applied to the first doped layer through the vias independent of one another. A spatial distribution of via currents among the multiple vias can be selected to yield a corresponding spatial distribution of emission intensity. Alteration of the via current distribution results in corresponding alteration of the emission intensity distribution; such alterations can be implemented dynamically. Multiple devices can be arranged as a light-emitting array.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic device (117) and a corresponding method for reconstructing a data page from an oversampled detected image of said data page. In order to avoid the necessity of using reference marks for said reconstructing it is provided an extraction unit (118) for extracting an oversampling factor from said oversampled detected image, a determination unit (119) for determining a correction information for a correction of said oversampled detected image with respect to said data page by using said extracted oversampling factor, and a correction unit (120) for correcting said oversampled detected image by using said determined correction information. The present invention relates particularly to an optical holographic device for reading out a data page recorded in a holographic recording medium (106).
