A new image encoding and identification scheme is proposed for security verification by us-ing a CGH(computer generated hologram), random phase mask, and a correlation technique. The encrypted image, which is attached to the security product, is made by multiplying a QP- CGH(quadratic phase CGI) with a random phase function. The random phase function plays a key role when the encrypted image is decrypted. The encrypted image can be optically recovered by a 2-f imaging system and automatically verified for personal identification by a 4-f correlation system. Simulation results show the proposed method can be used for both the reconstruction of an original image and the recognition of an encrypted image.

It is an important issue to compress huge holographic data in a digital format. In particular, research on the compression of phase-only holograms for commercialization is noteworthy. Conventional video coding standards optimized for natural images are not suitable for compressing phase signals, and neural network-based compression model that can be optimized for phase signals can achieve high performance, but has a memory issue in learning high-resolution holographic data. In this paper, we show that by applying a block-based learned image compression model that can solve memory problems to phase-only holograms, the proposed method can demonstrate significant performance improvement over standard codecs even under the same conditions as block-based. Block-based learned compression model can provide compatibility with conventional standard codecs, solve memory problems, and can perform significantly better against phase-only hologram compression.

In this paper, diffraction efficiency for computer-generated hologram (CGH) generated under various conditions was measured. This paper discusses the generation conditions that should be considered in hologram reconstruction. We compared each condition by measuring the intensity of the 1st order diffraction pattern of the fringe generated under the Fresnel condition for the phase and complex hologram.

Holography is a technique that can acquire and reproduce 3D objects nearly perfectly by representing both the amplitude and phase of light. Recently, digital holography has received considerable attention because it is simpler than analog holography from acquisition to reproduction. The data size of the digital hologram increases tremendously as the quality of digital holograms depends on their pixel pitch and resolution. Hence, efficient compression is necessary to realize holographic imaging services. In this report, we introduce recent digital hologram compression techniques and JPEG Pleno holography, which is the first international standardization activity for digital hologram compression. Furthermore, we discuss the future of this field.

A block quantized binary phase hologram is introduced for optical interconnection and encoded with a simulated alogorithm to achieve high diffraction efficiency and superession of unwanted spots. The block quantized binary phase holograms encoded with the algorithm are fabricated with electron beam lithography and chemical etching. the fabricated holograms showed excellent perfoemances for optical interconnection.

In this paper, we proposed a digital image watermarking technique using scrambled binary phase computer generated hologram in the discrete cosine transform(DCT) domain. For the embedding process of watermark. Using simulated annealing algorithm, we would generate a binary phase computer generated hologram(BPCGH) which can reconstruct hidden image perfectly instead of hidden image and encrypt it through the scramble operation. We multiply the encrypted watermark by the weight function and embed it into the DC coefficients in the DCT domain of host image and an inverse DCT is performed. For the extracting process of watermark, we compare the DC coefficients of watermarked image and original host image in the DCT domain and dividing it by the weight function and decrypt it using descramble operation. And we recover the hidden image by inverse Fourier transforming the decrypted watermark. Finally, we compute the correlation between the original hidden image and recovered hidden image to determine if a watermark exits in the host image. The proposed watermarking technique use the hologram information of hidden image which consist of binary values and scramble encryption technique so it is very secure and robust to the various external attacks such as compression, noises and cropping. We confirmed the advantages of the proposed watermarking technique through the computer simulations.

A CGH is a hologram generated by computer. It is widely applied to wavefront manipulation, synthesis, optical information processing and interferometer. Some methods have been used to determine the optimum phase pattern to achieve high diffraction efficiency and uniform intensity such as DBS (Direct Binary Search), SA (Simulated Annealing), GA(Genetic Algorithm). These methods require long computation time to generate a hologram. (omitted)

We report here on the application of a digital holographic microscope as a metrology tool for the inspection and the micro-topography reconstruction of different micro-structures of phase shift photo-mask (PSM). The lithography by phase shift photo-mask uses the interference and the pattern of the PSM is not imaged by general optical microscope. The technique allows us to obtain digitally a high-fidelity surface topography description of the phase shift photo-mask with only one hologram image acquisition, allowing us to have relatively simple and compact set-ups able to give quantitative information of PSM.
