In Part I [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 28, 1896 (2011) of this paper, the physical model for fully developed speckle is examined based on two critical assumptions. (i) It is assumed that in the object plane, the speckle field is ...
When monochromatic light is scattered from an optically rough surface a complicated three-dimensional (3D) field is generated. These fields are often described by reference to the 3D volume (extent) of their speckles, ...
We record two holograms using two different illuminating wavelengths. Subtracting these holograms, the resulting reconstruction is an approximation to the second order Laplacian differentiation of the object wave.
Access to the spatial derivatives of an optical wave field can be used to enhance edge detection, focusing, and holographic imaging. It was recently shown that, by using digital holographic techniques, the Laplacian of an ...
The statistical properties of speckles in paraxial optical systems depend on the system parameters. In particular, the speckle orientation and the lateral dependence (x and y) of the longitudinal speckle size can vary ...
