Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new method for in-plane displacement measurement by application of phase shifting based on an optical vortex. The phase shifts are obtained by displaying computer-generated fork holograms on the screen of a liquid-crystal spatial light modulator (LC-SLM). Furthermore, the vortex beam that is generated by the LC-SLM can be used as a reference light in the experiment. Eight speckle patterns with phase-shift increments of 0, , , and were captured by a CCD camera before and after the deformation. The displacement of the deformed object was obtained by unwrapping. Experimental results demonstrated the efficacy of the proposed method for in-plane displacement measurement.
