Creating an extended focus image of a tilted object in Fourier digital holography

Opt Express. 2009 Oct 26;17(22):20546-52. doi: 10.1364/OE.17.020546.

Abstract

We present a new method to numerically reconstruct images on a tilted plane by digital holography in Fourier configuration. The proposed technique is based on a quadratic deformation of spatial coordinates of the digital hologram. By this approach we demonstrate that it is possible to recover the extended focus image (EFI) of a tilted object in a single reconstruction step from the deformed hologram.
