One Step Rainbow Holography Using Synthesized Slit with Low Side-Lobes

  • Published:
Journal of Optics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

A technique to record rainbow holograms in a single step is described. The technique is based on the realisation of a synthetic slit. The synthetic slit with low side-lobes is generated by multiple exposures; The imaging lens is translated discretely between exposures. Finer slit is realised by increasing the number of exposures.
