Expanded field of view frequency-selective incoherent holography by using a triple-beam setup

Abstract

We propose a new, to the best of our knowledge, method of incoherent optical frequency selection called three-pack frequency-selective incoherent holography. Compressed holography is reconstructed using phase shift intercepts and spatial transfer function convolution in the form of separation without loss of magnification or resolution. The frequency-selective reconstruction process removes the conjugate and DC terms along with the interception of the object wave. This work attempts three-dimensional reconstruction and selected-frequency phase extraction of axial slices in submicron steps, and the experimental results show the potential of the proposed method in areas such as compressed holography, extended field of view, and slice tomography.
