Optical Image Processing : Spatial Filtering by Photorefractive Materials

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The nonlinearities of photorefractive materials such as Fe:LiNbO3, BSO, BGO,… are used to filter the Fourier spectrum of an object. Image processing techniques, such as contrast inversion or contrast enhancement of amplitude objects, and phase objects visualization are thus obtained with simple optical devices and low power cw lasers.
