Improved-fidelity error diffusion through blending with pseudorandom encoding

Abstract

Error diffusion (ED) and pseudorandom encoding (PRE) methods of designing Fourier transform holograms are compared in terms of their properties and the optical performance of the resulting far-field diffraction patterns. Although both methods produce a diffuse noise pattern due to the error between the desired fully complex pattern and the encoded modulation, the PRE errors reconstruct uniformly over the nonredundant bandwidth of the discrete-pixel spatial light modulator, while the ED errors reconstruct outside the window of the designed diffraction pattern. Combining the two encoding methods produces higher-fidelity diffraction patterns than either method produces individually. For some designs the fidelity of the ED–PRE algorithm is even higher over the entire nonredundant bandwidth than for the previously reported [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 16, 2425 (1999)] minimum-distance-PRE algorithm.
