20120294136 | Generation Method For Complex Amplitude In-Line Hologram and Image Recording Device Using Said Method - A method for generating a complex amplitude in-line hologram and an image recording device using said method makes it possible to realize high-speed processing and high-speed recording from a single off-axis hologram without limiting the spatial frequency band and without creating errors from interpolation. The complex amplitude in-line hologram is generated by performing the following in order: the acquisition of data for one off-axis hologram obtained by way of off-axis holography, and for an off-axis reference light used for obtaining the hologram; the setting of a reconstruction in-line reference light; a modulation process for performing spatial heterodyne modulation on the hologram on the basis of the phases of the reference lights; and a filtering process for performing spatial frequency filtering on the hologram modulated by the modulation process. Because spatial sampling is not performed, the limits on the viewing angle are relaxed. | 11-22-2012 |
