Wider viewing angle for holographic 3D display
Chinese Academy of Sciences

An ideal holographic 3D display should offer large viewing angle, full color, and low speckle noise. A new holographic 3D display system with a large viewing angle of 73.4° has been proposed. The system uses spatial light modulators (SLMs) and liquid crystal grating to achieve maximum diffraction modulation, which allows for a larger hologram size and a wider viewing angle. The proposed system has potential applications in education, culture, and entertainment.

Diffractive networks enable quantitative phase imaging (QPI) through random diffusers
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a label-free computational technique frequently used for imaging cells and tissue samples while facing challenges when diffusive media obstruct the optical path. UCLA researchers, led by Prof. Aydogan Ozcan, reported a diffractive optical network that perform QPI through random unknown phase diffusers. The potential integration of QPI diffractive networks onto image sensors may enable existing optical microscopes to perform all-optical phase recovery and image reconstruction on a chip.
