The possibility of the aberration-free reconstruction of a synthesized hologram-Fresnel projector in the case when the angles of incidence of the reconstructing plane wave exceed the angle of incidence of the plane reference wave during hologram synthesis is shown. The character of the dependence of admissible angles of incidence of the reconstructing wave on the parameters of the synthesis of hologram projectors is revealed and described mathematically. The results of an experimental study that confirms the possibility of the aberration-free reconstruction of hologram projectors at angles of incidence of the reconstructing plane wave that exceed the angle of incidence of the reference wave of the plane are presented. The results of the successful implementation of the projection photolithography process using a synthesized relief-phase reflection hologram-Fresnel projector are demonstrated.     

Binary computer-generated holograms for security applications from a synthetic double-exposure method by electron-beam lithography

We have developed a new multiplexing method for producing binary computer-generated holograms (CGH's) for security applications. This method is based on double recording of two types of coding method upon binary CGH's. The CGH synthesized by the proposed method can have multiple image planes from the region close to the hologram (image region) to infinity (Fraunhofer region) without severe degradation of reconstructed images in the image region. A CGH containing simultaneous image- and Fourier-type holograms is fabricated by electron-beam lithography. Some experimental results are presented.

Fresnel hologram reconstruction of complex three-dimensional object based on compressive sensing

Reconstruction the computer generated Fresnel hologram of complex 3D object based on compressive sensing （CS） is presented. The hologram is synthesized from a color image and the depth map of the 3D object. With the depth map, the intensity of the color image can be divided into multiple slices, which satisfy the condition of the sparsity of CS. Thus, the hologram can be reconstructed at different distances with corresponding scene focused using the CS method. The quality of the recovered images can be greatly improved compared with that from the back-propagation method. What＇s more, with the sub-sampled hologram, the image can be ideally reconstructed by the CS method, which can reduce the data-rate for transmission or storage.     

Reflection hologram for reconstructing deep images

A method to record deep and blurless images as a reflection hologram is proposed. A slit was used in the recording process in the same manner as for a rainbow hologram. The reconstructed image was monocolor and could be observed from wide longitudinal angles when it was illuminated by an extended white-light source such as a fluorescent lamp. One can easily obtain multicolor images by multiplexing the holograms with different wavelengths.     

Imaging of rotating objects by means of synthesized optical holograms

A scheme is presented for producing optical holograms of rotating objects by illuminating the object by a single-frequency coherent laser beam. Along one axis, the synthesis takes place due to rotation of the object; along the other axis, the hologram is synthesized by the coherent radiation field generated by a long linear optical antenna. Numerical simulation shows that reliable discrimination of object images from the accompanying background is possible, for point objects, using a single hologram recorded at one angular position and, for extended flat objects or thin cylinder-like objects, using holograms recorded at two or three angular positions. If the holograms are synthesized in the presence of normally distributed random phase noise, the quality of the reconstructed images of rotating objects remains sufficiently high for root-mean-square noise amplitudes exceeding π/2 and reaching the limiting value 2π/3.

Conjugate Image Plane Correlator with Holographic Disk Memory

A conjugate image plane correlator with holographic disk memory is proposed. Optical correlation between conjugate images reconstructed from a holographic disk and an input image on liquid-crystal television is executed with the rotation of the disk. Regardless of Fourier hologram recording with the pseudorandom diffuser, it is found possible to take out the diffuser from the original hologram recording scheme using an image reconstruction process and to get correlation signals between input and reconstructed conjugate images in the output plane of a two-lens imaging system. Generation of conjugate replicas with high contrast causes exact matching with an input image which results in high recognition performance for autocorrelation signals. The transfer function of an optical system can be controlled by adjustment of either hologram size or hologram area illuminated with a laser beam. Hence, the output intensity distribution can be adjusted by selecting a proper pupil function and the size of an output pupil defined by the input pupil size and the optical system magnification factor. The real-time character recognition by optical parallel high-speed processing for two dimensional images with position normalization is demonstrated.

Limits of admissible variations of these parameters are determined.

Digital holographic image fusion for a larger size object using compressive sensing

Digital holographic imaging fusion for a larger size object using compressive sensing is proposed. In this method, the high frequency component of the digital hologram under discrete wavelet transform is represented sparsely by using compressive sensing so that the data redundancy of digital holographic recording can be resolved validly, the low frequency component is retained totally to ensure the image quality, and multiple reconstructed images with different clear parts corresponding to a laser spot size are fused to realize the high quality reconstructed image of a larger size object. In addition, a filter combing high-pass and low-pass filters is designed to remove the zero-order term from a digital hologram effectively. The digital holographic experimental setup based on off-axis Fresnel digital holography was constructed. The feasible and comparative experiments were carried out. The fused image was evaluated by using the Tamura texture features. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method can improve the processing efficiency and visual characteristics of the fused image and enlarge the size of the measured object effectively.     

Experimental implementation of multiplexing/demultiplexing in digital images using virtual phase conjugation for holographic data storage

We experimentally implemented and proved the concept of multiplexing and demultiplexing in digital images using virtual phase conjugation, which was proposed in our previous study. In the experiment, we concluded that two digital images multiplexed in a single signal beam are recorded in a holographic medium, and these images are independently and successfully reproduced. In this method, the digital images are multiplexed by superimposing them on a complex amplitude, and not using volume hologram’s multiplexing. Thus, the exposure amount in the holographic medium is constant regardless of the number of multiplexing of digital images, and the method has great potential for achieving high recording density.

Characteristic features of light scattering by a thick volume hologram

A mathematical model is proposed for the optical transfer function of a thick two-dimensional volume hologram bounded by a rectangular periphery. It is shown that the hologram is made up of two parts. The first part is formed by a point reference beam which reads out the hologram through the longitudinal boundary, while the second part is formed when it is read out through its transverse boundary. It is established that the principal features of light scattering by a thick hologram involve the second component of the optical transfer function. It is shown that under conditions of phase detuning the angular dependence of this component fails to coincide with the corresponding dependence of the first part, and this greatly complicates the structure of the angular intensity of the reconstructed light beam. This conclusion is confirmed by the experimental results given which were obtained when investigating holograms of a divergent light beam recorded in a lithium niobate photorefractive crystal. The results are given of a calculation using the mathematical model discussed as applied to the experimental situation considered. State University of Control Systems and Electronics, Tomsk.

Speckle reduction by selective spatial-domain mask in digital holography

An improved method of using a selective spatial-domain mask to reduce speckle noise in digital holography is proposed.The sub-holograms are obtained from the original hologram filtered by the binary masks including a shifting aperture for being reconstructed. Normally, the speckle patterns of these sub-reconstructed images are different. The speckle intensity of the final reconstructed image is suppressed by averaging the favorable sub-reconstructed images which are selected based on the most optimal pixel intensity sub-range in the sub-holograms. Compared with the conventional spatial-domain mask method, the proposed method not only reduces the speckle noise more effectively with fewer sub-reconstructed images,but also reduces the redundant information used in the reconstruction process.
