| 20110255093 | INTERFEROMETRIC SYSTEM WITH SPATIAL CARRIER FREQUENCY CAPABLE OF IMAGING IN POLYCHROMATIC RADIATION - In the interferometric system, the image plane is imaged by an output imaging setup via a transmission system of reflectors to the output plane and a reflection type diffraction grating is located in the image plane of an imaging setup of a reference branch. The transmission systems of reflectors are adjusted so that axes of both branches coincide at an entrance to the output plane and parallel with a normal line of the output plane, and an axial beam, diffracted by the reflection type diffraction grating at an angle α, enters into the output plane at an angle β, and the relation between angle β and α is sin(β)=sin(α)/m, where m is a magnification of the output imaging setup. The system enables the achievement of a holographic imaging of an object by low-coherence waves. Incoherent waves allow the imaging of objects immersed in scattering media. | 10-20-2011 |
