"Silver-Halide Recording Materials" gives a detailed analysis of the theory,the characteristics, the manufacturing, and the processing methods of silver-halide materials used for the recording of holograms. Emphasis is placed on the selection of suitable silver-halide materials for conventional as well as special holographic applications. A detailed accountof current developing and bleaching mehtods used in the production of silver-halide holograms is given. The author also supplies a large number of recipes for diffeerent types of processing baths. The text is complemented by a comprehensive list of references which will facilitate anyfurther study. The monograph will be suitable for courses in holography, where the student possesses some background knowledge as regards the general holographic process and the holographic technique.

Ultra-high resolution holograms are now finding commercial and industrial applications in such areas as holographic maps, 3D medical imaging, and consumer devices. Ultra-Realistic Imaging: Advanced Techniques in Analogue and Digital Colour Holography brings together a comprehensive discussion of key methods that enable holography to be used as a te

The practical and comprehensive guide to the creation and application of holograms Written by Martin Richardson (an acclaimed leader and pioneer in the field) and John Wiltshire, The Hologram: Principles and Techniques is an important book that explores the various types of hologram in their multiple forms and explains how to create and apply the technology. The authors offer an insightful overview of the currently available recording materials, chemical formulas, and laser technology that includes the history of phase imaging and laser science. Accessible and comprehensive, the text contains a step-by-step guide to the production of holograms. In addition, The Hologram outlines the most common problems encountered in producing satisfactory images in the laboratory, as well as dealing with the wide range of optical and chemical techniques used in commercial holography. The Hologram is a well-designed instructive tool, involving three distinct disciplines: physics, chemistry, and graphic arts. This vital resource offers a guide to the development and understanding of the recording of materials, optics and processing chemistry in holography and: • Discusses the pros and cons of the currently available recording materials • Provides tutorials on the types of lasers required and optical systems, as well as diffraction theory and wave front reconstruction • Details the chemical formulations for processing techniques Researchers and technicians working in academia and those employed in commercial laboratories on the production of holograms as well as students of the sciences will find The Hologram to be a comprehensive and effective resource.

This text presents a collection of papers on holographic recording materials. It covers topics such as: film-grain noise on wavefront-reconstruction imaging; production of blazed holograms; reversal bleaching for low flare light on holograms; and red sensitivity of dichomated gelatin films.
