Fields of Research Interests and Accomplishments
Dr. Wang’s research interests are in 3D display technology. Her representative technical accomplishments are listed below.
[1] In terms of theory, a holographic display diffraction mechanism based on the effective area utilization was proposed. Under the guidance of this mechanism, the rapid generation technology of hologram was overcome. Compared with the conventional technology, the calculation speed of the hologram is increased by more than 2 times, and the holographic reproduction of real objects is realized. A high resolution holographic display technology with stray light elimination was proposed, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed image was more than 10dB, which promotes the application of holography in AR display.
[2] In terms of system, a holographic 3D display system with large viewing angle was developed. Compared with similar foreign technologies, this system can expand the viewing area by more than 8 times and increase the viewing angle to 14 degrees, which solves the problem of small viewing angle of the existing holographic 3D display. The relevant research achievements have been recognized and positively evaluated by academician Guo-Fan Jin, Prof. W. Osten (SPIE/Optica Fellow) and other well-known experts in the field of optics.
