Title:
CONFOCAL RAINBOW VOLUME HOLOGRAPHIC IMAGING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/040639
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A confocal rainbow holographic imaging system and hologram fabrication method. The system employs a multi-spectral light source, a multiple grating volume hologram and a dual pass illumination and imaging pathway which provide for depth sectioning of an object, coverage of the full FOV of the system, and high lateral and depth resolution. Dual matched holograms are used to provide a high image contrast ratio. A method for fabricating the holograms employ a novel combination of design tools is also provided.
