Holographic Interferometry: A Mach-Zehnder Approach

By Gregory R. Toker

Book Overview

This book demonstrates how to use standard photographic film for optical recording and reconstruction of Mach-Zehnder holograms and CCD/CMOS cameras for digital recording of Mach-Zehnder holograms/interferograms of transparent objects. It focuses on Mach-Zehnder classic, holographic reference beam, and shearing interferometry methods and how these can be used to test phase objects in aerospace and laser applications. Numerous reconstructed and classic interferograms, deflectograms, and Schlierengrams illustrate the material. This practical and accessible manual helps readers develop and design their own optimal optical scheme and choose applicable details to apply the Mach-Zehnder approach to the study of transparent objects.
