ABSTRACT:
A white-light viewable, cylindrical hologram is made by recording on a cylindrical recording medium the interference between a radial reference beam and an object wavefront emanating from the center of the cylindrical recording medium. In a second step, the cylindrical hologram is placed in a flat configuration and a second hologram is recorded by recording the interference between a reference beam and an object wavefront formed by directing coherent light through the first hologram. Finally, a third hologram is formed by recording the interference between a reference beam and an object wavefront formed by directing coherent light through a narrow strip of the second hologram. The third hologram is viewed by placing it in a cylindrical configuration and directing white light onto the hologram from a point source located on the axis of the cylindrical hologram.
