Three-Dimensional Imaging by Self-Reference Single-Channel Digital Incoherent Holography

摘要

Digital holography offers a reliable and fast method to image a three-dimensional (3-D) scene from a single perspective. This paper reviews recent developments of self-reference single-channel incoherent hologram recorders. Hologram recorders in which both interfering beams, commonly referred to as the signal and the reference beams, originate from the same observed objects are considered as self-reference systems. Moreover, the hologram recorders reviewed herein are configured in a setup of a single-channel interferometer. This unique configuration is achieved through the use of one or more spatial light modulators (SLMs).
