Providing an accessible introduction to holography, this book covers its use for optical storage, retrieval, and information processing, as well as its wide range of applications in the physical and life sciences. It supplies a complete overview of underlying concepts, including optical diffraction, coherence, and interference. It includes detailed guidance in the laboratory practice of holography. The text addresses fundamental optical phenomena and basic principles of holography, followed by tools for the successful use of holography in the laboratory, including a survey of laser sources and recording materials. The final section discusses well established applications of holography.
