We propose a system that utilizes reflection holograms to realize color holography that illuminates from the back site. In this configuration, two types of polarizers and two quarter-wave plates are used. By combining these elements and controlling the polarization direction of the transmitted beam that passes through them, it is possible to avoid the drawbacks of the conventional method of illuminating from the front. The reconstructed image has a wide viewing angle, and a clear color image can be observed. The effectiveness of this configuration in the proposed color holography system is discussed with respect to the dependence of the polarization characteristics of the elements on the angle of incidence. We also constructed a benchtop prototype with this configuration and evaluated its effectiveness.

Optical physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are gaining attention as a robust security solution for identification in the expanding Internet of Things (IoT). To enhance the security and functionality of PUFs, integrating multiple optical responses─such as fluorescence and structural color─into a single system is essential. These diverse optical properties enable multilevel authentication, where different layers of security can be verified under varying light conditions, greatly reducing the risk of counterfeiting.

Metasurface with natural static structure limits the development of dynamic metasurface holographic display with rapid response and broadband. Currently, liquid crystal (LC) was integrated onto the metasurface to convert the passive metasuface into an active one. But, majority of LC-assisted active metasurfaces often exhibit trade-offs among degree of freedom (DoF, typically less than 2), information capacity, response speed, and crosstalk.

Background: Thus far, considerable research has been focused on classifying a lesion as benign or malignant. However, there is a requirement for quick depth estimation of a lesion for the accurate clinical staging of the lesion. The lesion could be malignant and quickly grow beneath the skin.

Metasurface holograms offer various advantages, including wide viewing angle, small volume, and high resolution. However, full-color animation of high-resolution images has been a challenging issue. In this study, a full-color dielectric metasurface holographic movie with a resolution of 2322 × 2322 was achieved by spatiotemporally multiplexing 30 frames with blue, green, and red color channels at the wavelengths of 445 nm, 532 nm, and 633 nm at the maximum reconstruction speed of 55.

Recently, multifunctional metasurface has showcased its powerful functionality to integrate nanoprinting and holography, and display ultracompact meta-images in near- and far-field simultaneously. Herein, we propose a tri-channel metasurface which can further extend the meta-imaging ranges, with three independent images located at the interface, Fresnel and Fourier domains, respectively. Specifically, a structural-color nanoprinting image is decoded right at the interface of the metasurface, enabled by varying the dimensions of nanostructures; a Fresnel holographic image and another Fourier holographic image are present at the Fresnel and Fourier (far-field) domains, respectively, enabled by geometric phase.
