Single-shot phase-shifting incoherent digital holography

摘要

We propose single-shot incoherent digital holography in which a single-path in-line configuration and phase-shifting interferometry are adopted. Space-division multiplexing and polarization states of the waves are utilized to implement parallel phase-shifting holography. A single-path setup in parallel phase-shifting is constructed to capture an incoherent hologram easily with a compact system. An instantaneous and three-dimensional (3D) object image is obtained without undesired diffraction waves using parallel phase-shifting. The validity of the proposed technique is experimentally demonstrated for both transparent and reflective objects.
