Optical security based on three-dimensional phase object

摘要

An optical identification system based a three-dimensional (3D) phase object is presented. The identification is implemented by the correlation between a speckle pattern of the 3D phase object and stored speckle patterns. To achieve a high level of recognition, we use two speckle patterns of the 3D object obtained by illuminating two wavelengths. Experimental and numerical results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed system.
