Image design and replication for image-plane disk-type multiplex holograms

Abstract

The fabrication methods and parameter design for both real-image generation and virtual-image display in image-plane disk-type multiplex holography are introduced in this paper. A theoretical model of a disk-type hologram is also presented and is then used in our two-step holographic processes, including the production of a non-image-plane master hologram and optical replication using a single-beam copying system for the production of duplicated holograms. Experimental results are also presented to verify the possibility of mass production using the one-shot holographic display technology described in this study.
