Coaxial digital holography measures particular matter in cloud and ambient atmosphere

In the artificially affected weather, the detection of cloud droplets particles provides an important reference for the effective impact of artificial weather. Digital holography has the unique advantages of full-field, non-contact, no damage, real-time and quantification. In this paper, coaxial digital holography is used to record the polyethylene standard particles and aluminum scrap, and some important parameters, such as three-dimensional coordinate spatial distribution and particle size, will be obtained by the means of analyzing the digital hologram of the particle. The experimental results verify the feasibility of the coaxial digital holographic device applied to the measurement of the cloud parameters, and complete the construction of the coaxial digital holographic system and the measurement of the particles.
