Our result shows that the SNR of lensless ghost interference is related to the transverse length of the object, the position of the object in the imaging system and the transverse size of the light source. Furthermore, the effects of these factors on the SNR are discussed in detail by numerical simulations.展开更多

The visibility and resolution of the interference fringe related to the bandwidth of the spatial frequency spectrum of the source are analysed. The results show that the visibility of the third-order ghost interference fringe is much higher than that of the second-order one.展开更多

It is shown that not only can the visibility be dramatically enhanced compared to the third-order case, but also higher resolution is demonstrated if we scan two of three reference detectors in opposite directions with the same speed, meanwhile another two in identical directions where the speed of one reference detector is twice the other. The results show that the visibility and resolution improvement of the fourth-order ghost interference fringe can be applied to the Nth-order ghost imaging.展开更多
