Abstract

We developed and experimentally characterized a imaging setup for holography with separated wavelengths in the detection and sampling, by combining the quantum imaging with undetected photons and digital phase shifting.

Quantum holography with undetected light

Sebastian Töpfer, Marta Gilaberte Basset, Jorge Fuenzalida +3 more

Holography exploits the interference of a light field reflected/transmitted from an object with a reference beam to obtain a reconstruction of the spatial shape of the object. Classical holography techniques have been very successful in diverse areas such as microscopy, manufacturing technology, and basic science. However, detection constraints for wavelengths outside the visible range restrict the applications for imaging and sensing in general. For overcoming these detection limitations, we implement phase-shifting holography with nonclassical states of light, where we exploit quantum interference between two-photon probability amplitudes in a nonlinear interferometer. We demonstrate that it allows retrieving the spatial shape (amplitude and phase) of the photons transmitted/reflected from the object and thus obtaining an image of the object despite those photons are never detected. Moreover, there is no need to use a well-characterized reference beam, since the two-photon scheme already makes use of one of the photons as reference for holography.

We demonstrate single-frame reconstruction of infrared transmission and phase images using a silicon camera, by applying off-axis holography to quantum imaging with undetected photons. This enables single-frame, video-rate infrared imaging with visible detection.
