ABSTRACT

Introduction In digital holography, a hologram is formed on a detector that converts the impinging illumination to charge carriers (such as charge coupled device [CCD] or complementary metal oxide semiconductor [CMOS] cameras in the visible optic spectrum). Digital holography became an important imaging modality and was embedded within diverse fields, such as in life sciences and materials engineering. One of the main advantages of digital holography is the ability to numerically reconstruct the object, using a standard computer, in contrast to standard holography that required film development procedures.
