RESUMO
It has long been known that image plane holography with low-coherence illumination achieves optical sectioning of a volume object. A method is analyzed that is similar to image plane holography, but the interferometric arrangement utilizes the interference between two object-bearing beams instead of the basic object and reference beams.
RESUMO
A theory of optical sectioning by image plane holography is developed, emphasizing the use of broad-spectrum holographic methods to enhance the process. It is shown that a broad-spectrum source in a grating interferometer imitates the behavior of a monochromatic broad source.
RESUMO
The method of Fourier optics is applied to the problem of time-gated imaging through scattering media. Tb adapt the problem to this treatment, appropriate alterations are made: The continuous medium is replaced by a cascade of thin scatterers, and a spatial filtering process is substituted for the conventional gating processes. Closed-form solutions are derived.
