  2. Holography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography

    Holography. Holography is a technique that enables a wavefront to be recorded and later reconstructed. It is best known as a method of generating three-dimensional images, and has a wide range of other uses, including data storage, microscopy, and interferometry. In principle, it is possible to make a hologram for any type of wave.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_Optical_Holography

    The first book to feature a hologram on the front cover was The Skook (Warner Books, 1984) by JP Miller, featuring an illustration by Miller. The first record album cover to have a hologram was "UB44", produced in 1982 for the British group UB40 by Advanced Holographics in Loughborough.

  4. Mineralogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineralogy

    Mineralogy[n 1] is a subject of geology specializing in the scientific study of the chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals and mineralized artifacts. Specific studies within mineralogy include the processes of mineral origin and formation, classification of minerals, their geographical distribution ...

  5. Holography in fiction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography_in_fiction

    Holography is often used as a plot device in science fiction, appearing in a wide range of books, films, television series, animation and video games. Probably the first reference is by Isaac Asimov in his Foundation series starting in 1951. Holography has been widely referred to in movies, novels, and TV, usually in science fiction, starting ...

  6. Digital holographic microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_holographic_microscopy

    DHM phase shift image of cell details. Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) is digital holography applied to microscopy. Digital holographic microscopy distinguishes itself from other microscopy methods by not recording the projected image of the object. Instead, the light wave front information originating from the object is digitally recorded ...

  7. Optical mineralogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_mineralogy

    Optical mineralogy. A petrographic microscope, which is an optical microscope fitted with cross- polarizing lenses, a conoscopic lens, and compensators (plates of anisotropic materials; gypsum plates and quartz wedges are common), for crystallographic analysis. Optical mineralogy is the study of minerals and rocks by measuring their optical ...

  8. Implicate and explicate order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicate_and_explicate_order

    Implicate order and explicate order are ontological concepts for quantum theory coined by theoretical physicist David Bohm during the early 1980s. They are used to describe two different frameworks for understanding the same phenomenon or aspect of reality. In particular, the concepts were developed in order to explain the bizarre behaviors of ...

  9. Computer-generated holography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_holography

    Computer-generated holography. Computer-generated holography (CGH) is a technique that uses computer algorithms to generate holograms. It involves generating holographic interference patterns. A computer-generated hologram can be displayed on a dynamic holographic display, or it can be printed onto a mask or film using lithography. [1]
