Multiple imaging phase-encoded optical elements written as programmable spatial light modulators.
We report a multiple imaging capability of replicated binary Fresnel phase-encoded lenses written on programmable spatial light modulators (SLMs). These lenses produce a large number (up to 9 x 9) of equally intense replica images from either an external object or from a pattern which is encoded onto the SLM along with the phase-encoded lens. Theoretical details and experimental results using the magnetooptic spatial light modulator are presented.
