1,215,030. Holography. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. Aug.27, 1968 [Sept.11, 1967], No.40818/68. Heading G2J. Apparatus for forming an object using non- coherent radiation comprises means for selecting radiation emanating from a sequence of elemental portions of the object, beam splitting means for splitting radiation so selected into two beams so as to produce a pair of synmetrical conjugate images and superposing means for causing an interference pattern formed from the two beams to be recorded for each portion of the sequence on a recording medium in such a way that the hologram so formed is substantially linear having a linear intensity distribution corresponding to the aggregate Fourier transforms appropiate to the conjugate images. The output may be from a cathode ray tube illuminating a digital chip 16 comprising a series horizontal lines 14 each composed of transparent and opaque verticals. Light from the chip is collimated by lens 18 and directed to a beam splitter 20. This comprises two prisms 22, 24 having plane parallel facing surfaces 26, 28 separated by a space less than the wavelength of the radiation. The incident beam thus splits, one beam 36 being three times internally reflected at face 26 and another beam 38 passing into prism 24, and being relected at mirror face 42 and face 28. The beams 36, 38 pass to a lens 44 which creates conjugate images 46, 48 of the chip 16. The light from these then passes through a spherical lens 54 and cylindrical lens 56 wherein point pairs, e.g. 60, 62 of the images 46, 48 form interference fringes which are recorded as a horizontal line only on a roll of film to give a hologram. In reconstruction collimated light is shone on to the hologram, the light from which then passes two lens equivalent to lens 54, 56 to give separated images of the orinigal object. |
