By placing a volume hologram near the object in an optical imaging setup, we achieve Bragg processing. In this review, we discuss various image processing methods achievable with acousto-optic modulators as dynamic and programmable volume holograms. In particular, we concentrate on the discussion of various differentiation operations leading to edge extraction capabilities.展开更多

The principle of the SPGD algorithm is described briefly and a metric suitable for point source imaging optimization is given. The feasibility and good performance of the SPGD algorithm is demonstrated by an experimental system featured with a 140-actuator deformable mirror and a Hartrnann-Shark wavefront sensor. Then the SPGD based AO is applied to a liquid crystal array （LCA） based coronagraph to improve the contrast. The LCA can modulate the incoming light to generate a pupil apodization mask of any pattern. A circular stepped pattern is used in our preliminary experiment and the image contrast shows improvement from 10^-3 to 10^-4.5 at an angular distance of 2A/D after being corrected by SPGD based AO.展开更多
