Opis

Continuing in the steps of its predecessors, the fourth edition of Practical Holography provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date resource available. Focused on practical techniques in holography at all levels, it avoids any unnecessary mathematical theory. Features of the Fourth Edition

• Highlights new information on color holograms, sensitive materials, and state-of-the-art processing techniques
• Includes new chapters and revisions integrating information on digital holography
• Adds a new appendix on the methods of non-holographic 3D imaging
• Restores and updates the glossary of terms
• Outlines a timeline for holography, from the beginnings of understanding the wave model for light up to the present day

After nearly 12 years since the previous edition, this book is a vital manual and reference for holography professionals and enthusiasts. It is designed for the scientist, technologist, artist, and serious hobbyist alike, covering every aspect of the field from basic set-up to use of available instruments.
