Speckle engineering through singular value decomposition of the transmission matrix
arXiv:2010.06868 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.127.093903
Abstract
Speckle patterns are ubiquitous in optics and have multiple applications for which the control of their spatial correlations is essential. Here, we report on a method to engineer speckle correlations behind a scattering medium through the singular value decomposition of the transmission matrix. We not only demonstrate control over the speckle grain size and shape but also realize patterns with non-local correlations. Moreover, we show that the reach of our method extends also along the axial dimension, allowing volumetric speckle engineering behind scattering layers.
