Abstract

Interference from co-propagation of the object and reference beams can be digitally recorded for a digital transmission hologram (DTH). Volume holograms, as in display holography, which have been traditionally recorded in bulk photopolymer or photorefractive materials using a counter-propagating object and writing beams, are read out using multispectral light and offer the advantage of excellent wavelength selectivity. In this work, the reconstruction from a single digital volume reflection hologram (DVRH) and wavelength multiplexed DVRHs derived from respective single and multi-wavelength DTHs is investigated, using coupled wave theory and an angular spectral approach. The dependence of the diffraction efficiency on volume grating thickness, wavelength, and incident angle of the reading beam is studied.
