ABSTRACT:
A hologram is recorded on a recording medium with polarized, monochromatic and incoherent light by passing the light from image points through an anisotropic medium and a polarization analyzer. A difference in phase retardation occurs for each of orthogonally polarized ordinary and extraordinary light waves which set up a transfer function of diffraction pattern at the film for recordation. The image can be reconstructed with monochromatic light passed back through the recording system, or with coherent light by illuminating the film directly to form the image on the opposite side at a position in space corresponding to the original point of the image recorded.
