With the development of the micro/nanolithography, the optic-optic or optic-electronic modulation devices with different pixel shapes and sizes can be used for three-dimensional (3D) dynamical holographic display. The influence of different parameters of the modulation devices on the image quality of the 3D reconstructed object is analyzed for two cases: the phase-only computer-generated holography (CGH) and the complex amplitude CGH. The results quantitatively show that the pixel shape of the modulation devices will affect the quality of the holographic image.
We propose a method to improve the quality of the reconstructed images based on compressive sensing principles. The pseudo-inverse matrix and the total variation minimization algorithms are combined to reduce the sampling number of the computer generated hologram. Numerical simulations are performed and the results indicate that the peak signal to noise ratio is increased and the sampling ratio is decreased at the same time for holographic display.
Two different methods from graphic processing unit (GPU) and central processing unit (CPU) are proposed to suitably optimize look-up table algorithms of computer generated holography (CGH). The numerical simula- tions and experimental results show that we can reconstruct a good quality object. The computation of CGH for a three-dimensional (3D) dynamic holographic display can also be sped up by programming with our proposed method. It can optimize both file loading and the inline calculation process. The phase-only CGH with gigabyte data for reconstructing 10 MB object samplings is generated. In addition, the proposed method effectively re- duced time costs of loading and writing offline tables on a CPU. It is believed the proposed method can provide high speed and huge data CGH for 3D dynamic holographic displays in the near future.
