Abstract:This paper has advanced a new kind of method for making wide-angle rainbow-hologram. It differs from Benton's two-step method in two aspect: (1) the replacement of the single slite by the rectanglar aperture, (2) the adoption of image-plane reception. Hence our making hologram is a wide-angle hologram, which has characteristics of a rainbow-hologram, an imaged-hologram and a three dimension hologram. Its images can be reappear by illuminating the hologram with an incandescent lamp at a short distance. This paper will introduce to the reader our optical design, relevant parameters and results of experiments.
