Fresnel incoherent correlation holography with single camera shot

Abstract: Fresnel incoherent correlation holography (FINCH) is a self-interference based super-resolution three-dimensional imaging technique. FINCH in inline configuration requires an active phase modulator and at least three camera shots to reconstruct objects without the twin image and bias terms. In this study, FINCH is realized using a randomly multiplexed bifocal binary Fresnel zone lenses fabricated using electron beam lithography. A modified hologram reconstruction mechanism is presented which introduces the single shot capability in FINCH. A point spread hologram library was recorded using a point object located at different axial locations and an object hologram was recorded. The image of the object at different planes were reconstructed using decorrelation of the object hologram by the point spread hologram library. Application potential including bio-medical optics is discussed.
