Creating Transmission Holograms on the Laser Optics Base Plate

The object of the experiment P5.3.7.1 is to create transmission holograms and subsequently reconstruct them. This process uses a protection class 2 laser, so as to minimize the risk of eye damage for the experimenter. Both amplitude and phase holograms can be created simply by varying the photochemical processing of the exposed film. Recommendation: The Michelson interferometer on the laser optics base plate is ideal for demonstrating the effects of disturbances due to mechanical shocks or air streaking in unsuitable rooms, which can prevent creation of satisfactory holograms.
