Holography

What is not holography• Holodeck from Startrek

What is holography• Photography on steroids• Both amplitude and phase is

recorded• Different intensity in different

directions

LASER

Wave Nature of Light

Light• Light – El./Mag. radiation 300 – 800 nm

A Bit of Mathematics• u(p, t) = A(p)cos[2t – (p)]• u(p, t) = {A(p)exp[i ((p) – 2t)]}• u(p, t) = A(p)exp[i(p)]exp[-i2t]

Complex Amplitude• u(p) = A(p)exp[i(p)]

Interference

What is it?• Combination of waves• Adding two lights together causes dark!

What is it exactly?• Summation of complex amplitudes

uf=u1 + u2~ ~ ~

Interference of two waves – constructive and destructive

Interference

Optical intensity• Optical quality perceived by human eye• Square of complex amplitude’s magnitude• Mathematically

I = |u|2 = uu*• Intensity of interference

~ ~ ~

This all is true only if coherent light is assumed.

I = |ur + us|2 = |ur|2 + |us|2 + urus + urus = Ir + Is + 2 I1I2 cos(r – s)

Coherence

Purpose• Neglect temporal dependence• Coherence light -> stable interference• Degree of coherence – interference fringes visibility

What light is coherent• Monochromatic – temporal coherence• Coherence length

• Spherical waves – spatial coherence• Coherence area

Formal description• Binary relation• Cross correlation between two signals

Diffraction - Again

What exactly is diffraction• Everything not being reflection or refraction• Interference of many sources

Scalar Diffraction• Easier in certain environment• Huygens-Fresnel principle• More precise formulations• Kirchhoff• Rayleigh-Sommerfeld

In-line Hologram

Recording• Reference, object, hologram aligned in line• Mostly transparent and planar objects• Lower spatial frequency

Reconstruction• Images disturbed by blurred counterparts

Lens & Fourier Hologram

Lens• Different optical material: slowdown/diffraction of waves• Use of thin lens: assumption on lack of diffraction• Back focal plane = {front focal plane}

Fourier Hologram• Recording through lens• {planar image} + {point source}• Reconstruction through lens• Both virtual & real image in focus
