Benchmarking analysis of computer generated holograms for complex wavefront shaping using pixelated phase modulators
2021
Wavefront shaping with spatial light modulators (SLMs) enables aberration correction, especially for light control through complex media, like biological tissues and multimode fibres. High-fidelity light field shaping is associated with the calculation of computer generated holograms (CGHs), of which there are a variety of algorithms. The achievable performance of CGH algorithms depends on various parameters. In this paper, four different algorithms for CGHs are presented and compared for complex light field generation. Two iterative, double constraint Gerchberg-Saxton and direct search, and the two analytical, superpixel and phase encoding, algorithms are investigated. For each algorithm, a parameter study is performed varying the modulator’s pixel number and phase resolution. The analysis refers to mode field generation in multimode fibre endoscopes and communication. This enables generality by generating specific mode combinations according to certain spatial frequency power spectra. Thus, the algorithms are compared varying spatial frequencies applied to different implementation scenarios. Our results demonstrate that the choice of algorithms has a significant impact on the achievable performance. This comprehensive study provides the required guide for CGH algorithm selection, improving holographic systems towards multimode fibre endoscopy and communications.
