An afocal two-element holographic imaging system is presented. This system can be used to work in white light. The holographic optical elements (holographic lenses) are made as thick phase holograms on silver halide sensitized gelatin (SHSG) and they present a…

We propose a two step method which enables us to obtain transmission Holographic Optical Elements of high diffraction efficiency as well as a good signal-to-noise relation. By means of a device using partially coherent light, a master Holographic Optical Element…

An experimental analysis of noise gratings in holographic lenses is presented. Lenses are recorded as thick-phase holograms in bleached silver halide emulsion. The authors calculated noise grating efficiency by using the diffraction efficiency in points across a lens diameter. They…

Accurate recording of computer-generated holograms (CGH) on a phase material is not a trivial task. The range of available phase materials is large, and their suitability depends on the fabrication technique chosen to produce the hologram. We are particularly interested…
