Description
Summary:An optimized wavelength multiplexing procedure for color reflection holograms of diffusing objects recorded in Bayfol® HX photopolymer is proposed. It is based on simultaneous initial illumination of all the wavelengths and sequential shuttering down of the laser beams involved. Three lasers of 442 nm, 532 nm and 633 nm were selected, as a tradeoff solution between setup complexity and color reproduction accuracy. The obtained results prove that the presented method improves the simultaneous and sequential exposure methods by increasing the mean efficiency and reducing the standard deviation (increasing uniformity) of the involved wavelengths. For a Spectralon® diffusing object, the assessed method reports a mean efficiency of 25.0% with a standard deviation of 2.9%, while simultaneous and sequential iterative exposures result in mean efficiencies of 12.1% and 20.6% with standard deviations of 3.4% and 5.4%, respectively.
