Item Open Access Color holographic reconstruction using multiple SLMs and LED illumination(SPIE, 2009-01) Yaraş, Fahri; Onural, LeventA color holographic reconstruction technique by using three light emitting diodes (LEDs) is described. Reflective type phase-only spatial light modulators (SLMs) are used since they are suitable for in-line phase holograms. Gerchberg-Saxton iterative algorithm is used for computing phase holograms. Three phase holograms are calculated separately for red, green and blue colors, for a color reconstruction, and separately loaded to corresponding SLMs. Three LEDs are used for illuminating those phase holograms and reconstructions are combined and captured. Experimental results are satisfactory. © 2009 SPIE-IS&T.Item Open Access Holograms deep inside Silicon(Optical Society of America, 2016) Makey, Ghaith; Tokel, Onur; Turnalı, Ahmet; Pavlov, Ihor; Elahi, Parviz; Yavuz, Ozg ¨ un; İlday, F.

Özgür; Kang H.; Onural, LeventInfrared digital holograms of different statuettes are acquired. For each object, a sequence of holograms is recorded rotating the statuette with an angular step of few degrees. The holograms of the moving objects are used to compose dynamic 3D scenes that, then, are optically reconstructed by means of spatial light modulators (SLMs) using an illumination wavelength of 532 nm. This kind of reconstruction allows to obtain a 3D imaging of the statuettes that could be exploited for virtual museums. © 2011 Copyright Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).Item Open Access Method to enlarge the hologram viewing window using a mirror module(2009) Kang H.; Ohmura, N.; Yamaguchi, T.; Yoshikawa H.; Kim, S.-C.; Kim, E.-S.A liquid crystal panel for a video projector is often used for holographic television. However, its pixel size and pixel number are not enough for practical holographic 3-D display. Therefore, a multipanel configuration is generally used to increase the viewing window and displayed image size, and many spatial light modulators should be used in them. We propose a novel method to increase the viewing window of a holographic display system. The proposed method, which is implemented by using a mirror module and 4-f lens set, is to reconfigure the beam shape reflected by a spatial light modulator. The equipment is applied to a holographic display system, which has only a single spatial light modulator; a hologram could be displayed in a wider viewing window by the equipment than that of the conventional method. By the proposed method, the resolution of the reconfigured spatial light modulator has double resolution in the horizontal direction. Inversely, the vertical resolution is decreased. Even if the vertical resolution is decreased, a viewer could get 3-D effect because humans get more 3-D information in the horizontal direction. We have experimented using a liquid crystal on silicon (LcOS), whose resolution is 4096×2160pixels. The reconfigured resolution by the mirror module is 8192×1080pixels. From the experiments, the horizontal viewing window is almost two times wider than that without the mirror module. As a result, the hologram can be observed binocularly. © 2009 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers.Item Open Access Multi-SLM holographic display system with planar configuration(IEEE, 2010) Yaraş, Fahri; Kang, Hoonjong; Onural, LeventHolographic display system that uses six phase-only spatial light modulators (SLMs) performs holographic reconstructions from the phase-hologram of a point cloud that is extracted from 3D object. The SLMs are tiled as a three by two matrix on a virtual planar surface. The alignment is successful and the display system generates large holographic reconstructions. The proposed system can be used either to obtain reconstructions of large objects with a narrow field of view or reconstructions of smaller objects with a broader field of view. Therefore, since field of view is broader for smaller objects, observer has the flexibility to move around the reconstruction within a larger angle. This flexibility increases the motion parallax and as a consequence it increases the quality of 3D perception. Results show that even with three SLMs in horizontal direction the 3D perception is significantly increased. Experimental results are satisfactory.Item Open Access Optical reconstruction of transparent objects with phase-only SLMs(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2013) Stoykova, E.; Yaraş F.; Yontem, A.Ö.; Kang H.; Onural L.; Hamel P.; Delacrétaz, Y.; Bergoënd I.; Arfire, C.; Depeursinge, C.Three approaches for visualization of transparent micro-objects from holographic data using phase-only SLMs are described. The objects are silicon micro-lenses captured in the near infrared by means of digital holographic microscopy and a simulated weakly refracting 3D object with size in the micrometer range. In the first method, profilometric/tomographic data are retrieved from captured holograms and converted into a 3D point cloud which allows for computer generation of multi-view phase holograms using Rayleigh-Sommerfeld formulation. In the second method, the microlens is computationally placed in front of a textured object to simulate the image of the textured data as seen through the lens. In the third method, direct optical reconstruction of the micrometer object through a digital lens by modifying the phase with the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm is achieved. © 2013 Optical Society of America.Item Open Access Processing of optically-captured digital holograms for three-dimensional display(2009-04) Naughton, T.J.; Kreis, T.; Onural, Levent; Ferraro, P.; Depeursinge, C.; Emery, Y.; Hennelly, B. M.; Kujawiñska, M.In digital holography, holograms are usually optically captured and then two-dimensional slices of the reconstruction volume are reconstructed by computer and displayed on a two-dimensional display. When the recording is of a three-dimensional scene then such two-dimensional display becomes restrictive. We outline our progress on capturing larger ranges of perspectives of three-dimensional scenes, and our progress on four approaches to better visualise this three-dimensional information encoded in the digital holograms. The research has been performed within a European Commission funded research project dedicated the capture, processing, transmission, and display of real-world 3D and 4D scenes using digital holography. © 2009 SPIE.Item Open Access Real-time fringe pattern generation with high quality(OSA, 2009) Kang, Hoonjong; Yaraş, Fahri; Onural, Levent; Yoshikawa, H.A hologram computation procedure and its GPU implementation are presented. The procedure is based on partitioning. Each segment has an approximate but simpler frequency domain representation. Quality of the results is comparable to Fresnel holograms.Item Open Access Real-time multiple SLM color holographic display using multiple GPU acceleration(OSA, 2009) Yaraş, Fahri; Kang, Hoonjong; Onural, LeventA real-time color holographic video display system computes holograms from point cloud of a rigid object by using multi-GPU system and uses three different colored LEDs for reconstruction. Experimental results are satisfactory.Item Open Access Reconstruction of computer generated holograms by spatial light modulators(Springer, 2006) Kovachev, Metodi; İlieva, Rossitza; Onural, Levent; Esmer, Gökhan Bora; Reyhan, Tarık; Benzie, P.; Watson, J.; Mitev, E.Computer generated holograms generated by using three different numerical techniques are reconstructed optically by spatial light modulators. Liquid crystal spatial light modulators (SLM) on transmission and on reflection modes with different resolutions were investigated. A good match between numerical simulation and optically reconstructed holograms on both SLMs was observed. The resolution of the optically reconstructed images was comparable to the resolution of the SLMs.Item Open Access Thereconstruction quality improvement of holographic stereograms via variable size segmentation(IEEE, 2010) Şahin, Erdem; Onural, Levent; Kang, HoonjongAs computer generated holograms becomes more common, the fast computation of holographic interference patterns in digital environment becomes a necessity. Since the computation time of holograms via Fresnel (or Rayleigh-Sommerfeld) diffraction models makes real time applications impossible, the holographic stereograms are developed to be a solution for this problem. Holographic stereograms divide the hologram plane into segments. In phase added stereograms the coordinates of 3D source points are used while calculating the diffraction field. And that enables to calculate the diffraction field with appropriate sized FFTs. Although the phase added stereograms are advantageous in terms of computation time, the quality of the reconstructed three dimensional images may not be satisfactory. The main reason is that the diffraction field of a given point source is approximated as a pure complex sinusuoid in each segment. To increase the reconstruction quality, we propose a method that uses variable sized segments, as opposed to previously developed holographic stereograms that use fixed sized segments. While approximating the diffraction field of a point source, higher frequency regions are covered with smaller segments and lower frequency regions with larger segments. As a result of this, we keep the total number of oscillations of pure sinusoidal waves constant in each segment. The simulations that we carried out for a point source show that we are able to obtain better quality reconstruction with our method. ©2010 IEEE.Item Open Access Two-photon excitation of quantum dots in 3D via stacked fresnel hologram algorithm(OSA, 2017) Kesim, Denizhan Koray; Makey, Ghaith; Yavuz, Özgün; Tokel, Onur; İlday, Fatih ÖmerQuantum dots are engineered to have nanometers dimensions. The ability to specify the diameter and the material of the quantum dots allow us tune the absorption and emission properties. This results in extensive capabilities for imaging and display applications. Further, with two photon absorption and high peak power laser they can be excited at any point in 3D locally.
