چکیده

The most commonly used configurations in digital holography-namely Fourier holograms, Fresnel holograms, and image-plane holograms-are analyzed with respect to Seidel's wave aberration theory. This analysis is performed by taking into account the phase terms involved in the recording and reconstruction processes. The combined phase term from both processes is compared with the Gaussian-reference sphere, from which the wave aberration terms can be obtained. In conjunction with the analysis, for each of the aberration terms, conditions can be set to eliminate them. Wave aberrations are plotted to show how strongly different setups are affected.

Aberration correction and electron holography.

Electron holography has been shown to allow a posteriori aberration correction. Therefore, an aberration corrector in the transmission electron microscope does not seem to be needed with electron holography to achieve atomic lateral resolution. However, to reach a signal resolution sufficient for detecting single light atoms and very small interatomic fields, the aberration corrector has turned...

Primary aberration coefficients for axial gradient-index lenses

As for homogeneous lenses, for axial gradients the analysis of the Seidel and chromatic aberration coefficients can be very useful in lens design. However, at present few commercial optical design programs list the Seidel aberrations of GRIN lenses and none of them lists the chromatic aberrations. In order to facilitate the computer implementation of the chromatic aberrations of axial GRIN lens...

Seidel aberration coefficients for radial gradient -index lenses

Short and accurate analytic formulas for the Seidel coefficients of gradient-index lenses with arbitrary radial refractive-index distributions have been obtained. Starting from analytic ray-tracing formulas, we have developed a technique for decomposing the two components of the transverse aberration of an arbitrary skew ray in surface and inhomogeneous transfer contributions and a technique fo...

A Proposal for Astronomical Adaptive Optics by Incoherent Digital Holography

A new type of adaptive optics system is proposed for astronomical imaging. It replaces the wavefront sensing and modulation hardware pieces of conventional adaptive optics with numerical processing capabilities of digital holography of incoherent sources. OCIS codes: (010.1080) Active or adaptive optics; (090.1000) Aberration compensation; (090.1995) Digital holography; (110.0115) Imaging throu...

Direct continuous phase demodulation in digital holography with use of the transport-of-intensity equation

A novel approach for continuous phase demodulation in digital holography is proposed. This method allows direct recovery of continuous phase information encoded in digital holography. Transport-ofintensity-equation is invoked following the numerical reconstruction and propagation of the digital hologram. The recovered phase is free from the 2π discontinuities and thus phase unwrapping problems ...
