Abstract

To improve the resolution in point source digital in-line holography, we present two deconvolutions, one for the illumination system (coherent or partially coherent light source such as a laser or diode and pinhole) and one for the finite numerical aperture of the hologram. We show that for a system with moderate numerical aperture, optimal resolution of λ/2 laterally and λ in depth can be achieved.
