Abstract

La présente invention concerne un simple appareil holographique numérique et un procédé qui permettent de reconstruire des objets en trois dimensions avec une très faible profondeur focale ou une haute résolution axiale. On génère optiquement un certain nombre d'hologrammes en utilisant différentes longueurs d'onde espacées à intervalles réguliers. Ces hologrammes sont enregistrés, comme sur une caméra numérique, puis ils sont reconstruits numériquement. Les interférences des multiples longueurs d'onde de ces hologrammes donnent des plans de contours de très petite épaisseur et à séparation large. Les objets placés à différentes distances du plan de l'hologramme sont imagés clairement et indépendamment avec suppression complète des images hors foyer. Cette technique n'est disponible que dans le cadre de l'holographie numérique et elle a des applications dans la microscopie holographique.
