Synthetic quantum holography with undetected light

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Utilizing nonlinear interferometers for sensing with undetected light enables new sensing and imaging techniques in spectral ranges that are difficult to detect. To enhance this method for future applications, it is advantageous to extract both amplitude and phase information of an object. This study introduces two approaches for synthetic quantum holography with undetected light, which allows for obtaining an object’s amplitude and phase information in a nonlinear interferometer by capturing only a single image. One method is based on quasi-phase-shifting holography using superpixel structures displayed on a spatial light modulator. The other method relies on synthetic off-axis holography implemented through a linear phase gradient on a spatial light modulator. Both approaches are experimentally analyzed for applicability and compared with available multi-acquisition methods.
