FULL COLOR HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTOR WITH VARIABLE VIRTUAL IMAGE DISTANCE USING SINGLE COHERENT LIGHT SOURCE
Disclosed is a product that may include a light source, a wavelength conversion structure downstream the light source, a spatial filter downstream the wavelength conversion structure, and a spatial light modulator downstream the spatial filter. Also disclosed is a method that may include sending a first light from a light source through a wavelength conversion structure to down convert the first light into a first primary color light, sending the first primary color light through a spatial filter to convert the first primary color light to spatially coherent first primary color light, sending the spatially coherent first primary color light through a spatial light modulator to convert the spatially coherent first primary color light to spatially and temporally enhanced first primary color light.
Digital holographic microscope
The present invention relates to a system and method for digital holographic microscopy. According to an aspect of the invention there is provided an off-axis digital holographic microscope comprising: a light emitter configured to provide a divergent light beam; a sensor position to receive light from the light emitter in a first path and a second path, and thereby to detect a holographic image; a reflector positioned partially in the divergent light beam so that light that encounters the reflector extends towards the sensor in the first path, and light that does not encounter the reflector extends towards the sensor in the second path; and a support structure configured to support a sample in the first path or the second path.
Holography device
A device for processing a holographic wavefront, the device includes a holographic wavefront splitter having an input side arranged to receive a holographic wavefront on a first plane and divide the holographic wavefront into first and second portions. The input side includes a first reflector arranged to direct the first portion away from the first plane in a first direction, a second reflector arranged to direct the second portion away from the first plane in a second direction, and a discontinuity between the first reflector and second reflector. The discontinuity is arranged to receive and nullify a third portion of the holographic wavefront. The first and second reflectors are arranged to direct the first and second portions to an input side of a holographic wavefront recombiner. The holographic wavefront recombiner is arranged such that the first and second portions are recombined at an output side of the holographic wavefront recombiner.
