A statistical model is used to study the formation of noise gratings in holograms and the mechanism that causes radiation scattering in them. The theoretical model presented describes noise scattering in terms of diffraction due to the high number of…

The aim of this study is to develop a color visualization system for multispectral images in the near-infrared region (NIR, 800–1000 nm). Samples with the same color or appearance in the visible region, which are therefore indistinguishable to the human

The use of bleaching techniques is perhaps one of the most popular methods of creating phase holograms from holographic emulsions. In this paper we will study the influence of the different experimental conditions on the refractive index modulation created inside…

In recent years, holographic optical elements have been introduced in different applications such as high-density data storage, interconnections, spatial and temporal filters and three-dimensional displays. Simultaneously, more sensitive, efficient and durable holographic materials have been developed. Thus it is necessary…

The authors have developed a simple method to compare the colour gamuts of
different industries (printing, textiles, plastics, etc.) based on representing the reproduced
colours in constant lightness L* and hue hab* planes. This method allows the analysis of those

PURPOSE: To evaluate the changes in the optical quality of corneas of hyperopic patients operated using central multifocal presbyLASIK treatment through the study of light patterns around the retinal plane.
METHODS: This study included eight hyperopic eyes that underwent central…

Holographic data storage is a new optical technology, which allows an important number of bits to be stored in a recording material. In this paper, holographic data pages were stored in a polyvinyl alcohol/acrylamide (AA) photopolymer layer, using a peristrophic…

A new technique for analysing the optical quality of the human cornea is presented. Corneal maps are obtained through keratographies and then converted into phase maps. The propagated fields generated from this surface are plotted and studied. It is shown…

In this work, we have applied the fractional Fourier transform to obtain the Fresnel diffraction patterns in a theoretical eye. The FRT approach to Fresnel diffraction is easily implemented in a Gullstrand-Emsley theoretical eye, and it allows us to obtain…

Based on the results of the coupled-wave theory the diffraction efficiency is calculated for thick phase transmission holographic gratings taking into account the chemical processing of the recording material. Three effects of processing are considered: variations in the average refractive…
