This book describes the basic principles of holography and some recent innovative developments in the field.
The first, Understanding Holography, presents the principles of hologram recording illustrated with practical examples. A comprehensive review of diffraction in volume gratings and holograms is also presented.
The second section, Contemporary Holographic Applications, is concerned with advanced applications of holography including sensors, holographic gratings, white-light viewable holographic stereograms.
The third section of the book Digital Holography is devoted to digital hologram coding and digital holographic microscopy.
