Fig. 1. Application diagram of OPOM 4 × 8 in polarization holography. (a) Concept of polarization hologram multi-channel multiplexing, whose numerical result indicates that the unique information can only be output when P C dek = P C enk . (b) Experimental demonstration by illuminating with different input PC reference waves. The input PC reference wave that determines the reconstruction results for the Arabic numerals 1–8 corresponds respectively to the horizontal coordinates in (a).

Fig. 2. The construction of OPOM that is derived from the minimum unit, OPOM 2 × 4 , and any Hadamard matrix. Each element of the Hadamard matrix is multiplied by the factor OPOM 2 × 4 and then individually mapped to obtain the higher-order OPOM.

Fig. 3. P C e n k ( k = 1 − 8 ) from the OPOM 4 × 8 with eight orthogonal pairs, each containing four polarization states. The direction of the arrow indicates the polarization angle of the polarized light. P C e n 1 = ( s , p , s , p ) ; P C e n 2 = ( p , s , p , s ) ; P C e n 3 = ( s , − p , s , − p ) ; P C e n 4 = ( p , − s , p , − s ) ; P C e n 5 = ( s , p , − s , − p ) ; P C e n 6 = ( p , s , − p , − s ) ; P C e n 7 = ( s , − p , − s , p ) ; P C e n 8 = ( p , − s , − p , s ) .

Fig. 6. Holographic encoding of OPOM information channels for multiplexed dynamic display. (a)–(h) The results under a single P C e n as the P C d e ; (i)–(k) the results under the P C d e formed by combining three different P C e n . When P C d e = P C e n 1 + P C e n 2 + P C e n 3 + P C e n 4 + P C e n 5 + P C e n 6 + P C e n 7 + P C e n 8 , the entire rectangle is displayed as depicted in (i). When P C d e = P C e n 1 + P C e n 2 + P C e n 3 + P C e n 4 , the left half is displayed as depicted in (j). When P C d e = P C e n 5 + P C e n 6 + P C e n 7 + P C e n 8 , the right half is displayed as depicted in (k).
