AI Article Synopsis

  • A new superresolution method is introduced for analyzing interference fringes using four-step phase-shifting digital holography.
  • The technique derives a complex amplitude distribution from holograms by utilizing two pixels for phase-shifting without needing interpolation.
  • It extends the available space bandwidth of an image sensor to enhance the angular spectrum distribution of the object wave through Fourier transforms.

Article Abstract

A superresolution method for interference fringes obtained by parallel four-step phase-shifting digital holography is proposed. A complex amplitude distribution of an object wave is derived from a recorded hologram by parallel phase-shifting interferometry using two pixels without any interpolation procedures. Multiple distributions are derived by changing one of the two pixels when conducting phase-shifting interferometry. The angular spectrum distribution of the object wave is obtained by both the Fourier transforms and synthesis of the spectrum distribution from the Fourier-transformed images in the spatial frequency domain. Available space bandwidth is extended to half of that of an image sensor.
