Random phase-free kinoform for large objects
We propose a random phase-free kinoform for large objects. When not using the
random phase in kinoform calculation, the reconstructed images from the
kinoform are heavy degraded, like edge-only preserved images. In addition, the
kinoform cannot record an entire object that exceeds the kinoform size because
the object light does not widely spread. In order to avoid this degradation and
to widely spread the object light, the random phase is applied to the kinoform
calculation; however, the reconstructed image is contaminated by speckle noise.
In this paper, we overcome this problem by using our random phase-free method
and error diffusion method
