It was undertaken to apply holographic techniques to char- acterize the dynamic behavior and structure of an advanced graphite-epoxy composite part and its ancillary mounting geometry. Holograms of the vibrational modes of the structure are used to accurately map the nodes, maxima, minima, and geometry of the induced motion. Holograms of the displacement patterns of mechanical and thermally induced stress in the structure are also used to map the location and extent of nonuniformities, discontinuities, and micro-structural defects in the volume and mounting of the composite material. Holographic data was imaged by a photo-thermoplastic based holocamera system configured for off-axis holograms and coupled to high resolution video capture for subsequent image analysis.

A reconfigurable holographic metasurface (HM) with multifunctional modulation of radiation and scattering for conformal applications is designed in this paper. Based on optical holography theory, a holographic conformal modulation mechanism is proposed, and the conformal surface impedance distribution of HM is derived. To illustrate this mechanism, the designed conformal reconfigurable HM is used to demonstrate a series of radiation and scattering modulation functions, with its reconfigurable property enabling dynamic beam control.

Holographic displays have the potential to reconstruct natural light field information, making them highly promising for applications in augmented reality (AR), head-up displays (HUD), and new types of transparent three-dimensional (3D) displays. However, current spatial light modulators (SLMs) are constrained by pixel size and resolution, limiting display size. Additionally, existing holographic displays have narrow viewing angles due to device diffraction limits, algorithms, and optical configurations.

Due to their advantages of compact geometries and lightweight, diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are attractive in various applications such as sensing, imaging and holographic display. When designing DOEs based on algorithms, a diffraction model is required to trace the diffracted light propagation and to predict the performance. To have more precise diffraction field tracing and optical performance simulation, different diffraction models have been proposed and developed.

Phase-shifting Fringe projection profilometry (FPP) excels in 3D measurements for many macro-scale applications, but as features-of-interest shrink to the microscopic scale, depth-of-field limitations slow measurements and necessitate mechanical adjustments. To address this, we introduce digital holography (DH) for fringe image capture, enabling numerical refocusing of defocused object regions. Our experiments validate this approach and compare depth measurement noise with other DH and FPP methods.

Polarization devices play a key role in many optical technologies and applications. However, traditional polarization devices are often large and lack integration, and achieving polarization conversion typically requires combining multiple devices, which makes it challenging to realize integrated optical systems. Following the current trend of optical devices, we propose a method using polarization holographic exposure to prepare polarization conversion devices.
