In this paper, we propose a new hardware architecture to generate computer-generated holograms based on the block based calculation method and implement a VLSI (very large scaled integrated circuit) in ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) environment. The proposed hardware has a structure that can produce a part of a hologram in the unit of a block in parallel. After calculating a block of a hologram by using an object point, the calculation is repeated to all object points and intermediate results from them are accumulated to produce a final block of a hologram. Through this structure, we can make various size of holograms with the optimized memory access in real-time operation. The proposed hardware was implemented in the Hynix 0.18um CMOS technology of Magna chip Inc. and has 876,608 gate counts. It can generate complex holograms unlike the previous researches and stably operate in the clock frequency of 200MHz.

Recently, an ultrasound hologram and its applications have gained attention in the ultrasound research field. However, the determination technique of transmit signal phases, which generate a hologram, has not been significantly advanced from the previous algorithms which are time-consuming iterative methods. Thus, we applied the deep learning technique, which has been previously adopted to generate an optical hologram, to generate an ultrasound hologram. We further examined the Deep learning-based Holographic Ultrasound Generation algorithm (Deep-HUG). We implement the U-Net-based algorithm and examine its generalizability by training on a dataset, which consists of randomly distributed disks, and testing on the alphabets (A-Z). Furthermore, we compare the Deep-HUG with the previous algorithm in terms of computation time, accuracy, and uniformity. It was found that the accuracy and uniformity of the Deep-HUG are somewhat lower than those of the previous algorithm whereas the computation time is 190 times faster than that of the previous algorithm, demonstrating that Deep-HUG has potential as a useful technique to rapidly generate an ultrasound hologram for various applications.

In this paper, we demonstrated, through experiment and numerical reconstruction, that the bias and the conjugate image, which are main drawbacks in incoherent holography, can be removed. By using wave plates of the modified triangular interferometer, which was made by adding simple passive devices to the conventional triangular interferometer, we adjusted the relative phase differences of two optical waves traveling in clockwise and counterclockwise. In this way, we obtained four intensity patterns, and then by manipulating the four intensity patterns electronically we obtained the complex hologram without bias and the conjugate image. Comparing numerical reconstruction results of the complex hologram with numerical reconstruction results of the hologram obtained from the conventional triangular interferometer, we demonstrated that bias and the conjugate image can be removed using the modified triangular interferometer.

Volume holograms recorded in photorefractive materials can find important applications in optical memories and optical computing systems. One problem with a photorefractive hologram is that it gets erased by the readout light. Nondestructive readout can be achieved by hologram fixing, and several fixing methods have been reported. Fixing is accomplished by thermally activated motion of an unknown ionic defect, which neutralizes the electronic space-charge patterns. At room temperature the ionic patterns are stabilized. When the electrons are partially redistributed by light, a net space-charge pattern appears, and tile fixed hologram can be read out. In this paper, theoretical modeling and some experimental results are presented for thermal fixing of volume phase holograms in photorefractive $LiNbO_3$:Fe. Thermal fixing can be done during or after recording and depends on fixing temperature ($100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$ range) and grating length. Fixed Slating can be erased completely at the temperature over $300^{\circ}C$. Theoretical modeling shows weil the compensation of electronic Slating by ionic grating and is in good agreement with experimental results. In experiments the dependence of thermal fixing on temperatures and grating lengths is investigated.

We propose a new scheme of hologram multiplexing that can improve the crosstalk noise in the conventional phase-code multiplexing. Our method is based on the idea that the separate holograms to be stored in a certain region of the photorefractve material should have relative phase other than $180^{\circ}$. To demonstrate the new idea we fabricate a phase spatial light modulator using piezo-electric material. The experimental result shows that the crosstalk noise in the restored holograms is reduced much in our method. We also computer simulate the hologram multiplexing and compare the result with the experimental data.l data.

In this paper, a three-key triple data encryption algorithm (TDEA) of a digital cryptosystem based on phase-shifting interferometry is proposed. The encryption for plaintext and the decryption for the ciphertext of a complex digital hologram are performed by three independent keys called a wavelength key k₁(λ), a reference distance key k₂(d_r) and a holographic encryption key k₃(x, y), which are represented in the reference beam path of phase-shifting interferometry. The results of numerical simulations show that the minimum wavelength spacing between the neighboring independent wavelength keys is about δλ = 0.007 nm, and the minimum distance between the neighboring reference distance keys is about δd_r = 50 nm. For the proposed three-key TDEA, choosing the deviation of the key k₁(λ) as δλ = 0.4 nm and the deviation of the key k₂(d_r) as δd_r = 500 nm allows the number of independent keys k₁(λ) and k₂(d_r) to be calculated as N(k₁) = 80 for a range of 1,530-1,562 nm and N(d_r) = 20,000 for a range of 35-45 mm, respectively. The proposed method provides the feasibility of independent keys with many degrees of freedom, and then these flexible independent keys can provide the cryptosystem with very high security.

With dichromated bleacher and alcohol drying, over effi. of 81% has been achieved for holographic gratings. It is recorded by two plane waves at 632.8 nm in Agfa 8E75 film. Swollen emulsion and rapid dehydration make a strong modulation. The model works well close to the Bragg condition. It is suggested modified parameters of coupled-wave theory which have good agreement with experimental results.

Conoscopic holography, which consists of two linear polarizers and two wave plates, and an uniaxial crystal, is incoherent holographic technology for three-dimensional display. In the uniaxial crystal, the wave from object divides into extraordinary and ordinary waves and phase difference between two waves is caused by the different refractive index of two waves. Four intensity patterns, which are made by phase difference, are obtained using LCLV(liquid crystal light valve) and conoscopic holography system. By combining four intensity patterns, the complex hologram without bias and conjugate image. In this paper, we propose the optimized system, which consists of a wave plate and a linear polarizer, and uniaxial crystal. In the proposed system, it doesn't need LCLV. By adjusting the azimuth angle of a linear polarizer and a wave plate, we derive four intensity patterns in recording plane. We demonstrate theoretically that the complex hologram with bias and a conjugate image is obtained using the proposed system.

We need two operation modes to obtain the complex hologram without bias and the conjugate image in the modified triangular interferometer(MTI). To solve the problem, we proposed the optimized MTI with one wave plate, which can obtain cosine and sine functions by the combination of one wave plate and one linear polarizer. In the extraction of phase term using the combination of polarization components, the phase error occurs, and we simulated such potential phase errors in the optimized MTI.
