摘要
We use a phase-only computer-generated hologram to encode both phase and amplitude of a power of Rayleigh speckles. This method allows us to generate speckles with enhanced and reduced contrast without any optimization process. We explore non-Rayleigh speckles and unveil, theoretically and experimentally, their first-order statistical properties. These speckles may find applications in syntheses of disordered optical potentials for cold atoms and colloidal particles, in speckle illumination imaging, and in wave interference studied through spatial intensity correlation.
