Abstract: | Digital micromirror device’s (DMD) properties as being a display device for holographic displays are investigated. High speed, a large separation between reconstructed image and reconstruction beam, two symmetric diffraction patterns, and low intensity (0,0)th-order beam at a blazed grating condition are the desired properties for the displays. The blazed grating condition of a DMD can reconstruct images with higher diffraction efficiency than the line grating condition. DMD’s high speed enables to present colors and gray levels to the reconstructed image. However, reconstructed images from a gray-level computer-generated hologram (CGH) and its binary form hologram reveal no noticeable difference between them, except the background noise in the image from the CGH. |
