Fresnel incoherent compressive holography toward 3D videography via dual-channel simultaneous phase-shifting...

Fresnel incoherent correlation holography (FINCH) enables high-resolution 3D imaging of objects from several 2D holograms under incoherent light and has many attractive applications in motionless 3D fluorescence imaging. However, FINCH has difficulty implementing 3D imaging of dynamic scenes since multiple phase-shifting holograms need to be recorded for removing the bias term and twin image in the reconstructed scene, which requires the object to remain static during this progress. Here, we propose a dual-channel Fresnel noncoherent compressive holography method. First, a pair of holograms with π phase shifts obtained in a single shot are used for removing the bias term noise. Then, a physic-driven compressive sensing (CS) algorithm is used to achieve twin-image-free reconstruction. In addition, we analyze the reconstruction effect and suitability of the CS algorithm and two-step phase-shift filtering algorithm for objects with different complexities. The experimental results show that the proposed method can record hologram videos of 3D dynamic objects and scenes without sacrificing the imaging field of view or resolution. Moreover, the system refocuses images at arbitrary depth positions via computation, hence providing a new method for fast high-throughput incoherent 3D imaging.
