Digital holography refers to the acquisition and processing of holograms with a digital sensor array , typically a CCD camera or a similar device. Image rendering, or reconstruction of object data is performed numerically from digitized interferograms. Digital holography offers a means of measuring optical phase data and typically delivers three-dimensional surface or optical thickness images. Several recording and processing schemes have been developed to assess optical wave characteristics such as amplitude, phase, and polarization state, which make digital holography a very powerful method for metrology applications .

Wave Front Sensing Method and Apparatus

A new way of mixing instrumental and digital means is described for the general field of wave front sensing. The present invention describes the use, the definition and the utility of digital operators, called digital wave front operators (DWFO) or digital lenses (DL), specifically designed for the digital processing of wave fronts defined in amplitude and phase. DWFO are of particular interest for correcting undesired wave front deformations induced by instrumental defects or experimental errors. DWFO may be defined using a mathematical model, e.g. a polynomial function, which involves coefficients. The present invention describes automated and semi-automated procedures for calibrating or adjusting the values of these coefficients. These procedures are based on the fitting of mathematical models on reference data extracted from specific regions of a wave front called reference areas, which are characterized by the fact that specimen contributions are a priori known in reference areas. For example, reference areas can be defined in regions where flat surfaces of a specimen produce a constant phase function. The present invention describes also how DWFO can be defined by extracting reference data along one-dimensional (1D) profiles. DWFO can also be defined in order to obtain a flattened representation of non-flat area of a specimen. Several DWFO or DL can be combined, possibly in addition with procedures for calculating numerically the propagation of wave fronts. A DWFO may also be defined experimentally, e.g. by calibration procedures using reference specimens. A method for generating a DWFO by filtering in the Fourier plane is also described. All wave front sensing techniques may benefit from the present invention. The case of a wave front sensor based on digital holography, e.g. a digital holographic microscope (DHM), is described in more details. The use of DWFO improves the performance, in particular speed and precision, and the ease of use of instruments for wave front sensing. The use of DWFO results in instrumental simplifications, costs reductions, and enlarged the field of applications. The present invention defines a new technique for imaging and metrology with a large field of applications in material and life sciences, for research and industrial applications.

Information security using digital holography
InactiveUS20060078113A1User identity/authority verificationHolographic optical componentsComputer visionPhase mask
A method and system for encrypting multi-dimensional information utilizing digital holography is presented. A phase-shifting interferometer records the phase and amplitude information generated by a three-dimensional object at a plane located in the Fresnel diffraction region with an intensity-recording device. Encryption is performed by utilizing the Fresnel diffraction pattern of a random phase mask. Images of different perspectives of the three-dimensional object focused at different planes can be generated digital or optically with the proper key after decryption. After decryption, images of the object, focused at different planes, can be generated digitally or optically. The method allows for the reconstruction of the object with different perspectives from a single encrypted image. The method does not require sending the key exclusively through a digital communication channel. Instead, a copy of the random phase key itself can be sent to the authorized user. A method of forming an image of an object is disclosed. The method comprises forming an original hologram of the object; compressing the original hologram of the object to form a compressed hologram; decompressing the compressed hologram of the object to form a decompressed hologram; and reconstructing the object from the decompressed hologram to form a multi-dimensional image of the object.

A simple digital holographic apparatus and method allow reconstruction of three-dimensional objects with a very narrow depth of focus or high axial resolution. A number of holograms are optically generated using different wavelengths spaced at regular intervals. They are recorded, such as on a digital camera, and are reconstructed numerically. Multiwavelength interference of the holograms results in contour planes of very small thickness and wide separation. Objects at different distances from the hologram plane are imaged clearly and independently with complete suppression of the out-of-focus images. The technique is uniquely available only in digital holography and has applications in holographic microscopy.

A Synthetic Aperture Digital Holographic 3D Microscopic Observation Device with Smooth Reflective Surface
The invention discloses a three-dimensional micro-observation apparatus for a smooth reflective surface and the apparatus is based on synthetic aperture in digital holography. The apparatus comprises a light source, light splitting unit, space filters, plano-convex lenses, a planar mirror, a depolarization beam splitter prism, a beam adjuster, a rotating stage and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) camera. A light path of the apparatus is characterized in that: a laser emitted by the light source is incident to the light splitting unit; after a light splitting processing is carried out by the light splitting unit, illuminating light and reference light are output; two beams of light respectively pass through the space filters and the plano-convex lenses in order so as to be processed by beam expansion and shaping; the illuminating light passes through the planar mirror and outputs parallel light that penetrates the depolarization beam splitter prism and is incident inclinedly to a surface of an observed object on the rotating stage; and then reflected light of the object surface is again incident to the depolarization beam splitter prism; an angle and a position of the reference light are adjusted by the beam adjuster and the reference light is also incident to the depolarization beam splitter prism; and light composition processing is carried out on the incidentreference light and an object light by the depolarization beam splitter prism so as to obtain a combined light beam; and an interference hologram formed by the combined light beam is captured by a photosensitive surface of the CMOS camera. During the obtaining process, the rotating stage is rotated and an incident angle of the illuminating light is adjusted many times, so that an object surface hologram that contains different frequency components is obtained; and then fusion is carried out, thereby realizing a three-dimensional micro-observation based on the synthetic aperture in digital holography.
