Abstract

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate Stokes holography for recording and reconstructing a object using polarization fringes. Reconstruction is carried out by scattering the polarization fringes through ground glass, and replacing the ensemble averages by space averages of the randomly scattered Gaussian field. Object encoded into polarization fringes are reconstructed into their corresponding elements of generalized Stokes parameters. Experimental and numerical results of a point object reconstruction are presented.
