Recent Progress in Optical Scanning Holography
Optical scanning holography (OSH) is a unique technique in that holographic information for a threedimensional (3-D) object can be acquired with a single 2-D optical scan. In this review article, we present recent progress in and prospects for optical scanning holography. We first discuss the principle of OSH and show some recent novel results obtained with the technique, showing that holographic imaging of a 3-D object can be performed coherently or incoherently. We then discuss several o pportunities for application of OSH in areas such as 3-D holographic microscopy, recognition of 3-D objects, 3-D holographic television, 3-D optical cryptography, and 3-D optical remote sensing.

- The growing interest and activity in the fields of holography and speckle require a forum for rapid dissemination of important results. Journal of Holography and Speckle (JOHAS) is that international forum which offers scientists and engineers timely, peer-reviewed research in these fields. Journal of Holography and Speckle publishes original rapid communications, full research papers and timely state-of-the-art reviews (with author's biography and photo) encompassing the fundamental and applied research in all areas of holography, and speckle.
