LITERATURE SURVEY OF HOLOGRAPHIC INTERFEROMETRY[ ]


The Holographic Interferometry is the most important and revolutionary application of holography. It’s an extension of classical interferometry measurement techniques which at least one of the waves which interfere is reconstructed by hologram. This precision technique can be able to measure all the types of complicated objects without mechanically disturbed like as Non- Destructive Testing. Through the use of off-axis holography, opaque objects diffused reflections appear to be overlaid by interference fringes that can be indicative of deformation, displacement or rotation of the object. Similarly in the case of transparent objects fringe patterns can be formed which are indicative of changes in refractive index or object thickness variations.
