Two-wavelength holography, when the hologram is recorded at one wavelength and
reconstructed at some shifted wavelength, is an efficient tool for many applications. Optically …

A real-time hologram generated in the liquid-crystal layer of a leaky-mirror silicon light valve
is read by the same low-intensity beams used to record it. For a particular geometry, one of …
