Description

Full text: A interferogram from a test object is projected onto an optically addressed spatial light modulator. The resulting phase pattern diffracts two read beams. Two on-axis high-order diffracted beams (which are conjugate to each other) interfere to produce a phase-amplified interferogram. Up to ten times amplification is demonstrated
