Abstract
We show improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio of speckle correlation fringe patterns by providing a conjugate phase to the scattered object beam. This conjugate phase negates the speckle phase and will leave the speckle intensity as the only statistically varying quantity. Since one of the random variables is reduced the signal-to-noise ratio improves. The variation of intensity in the fringe profile is reduced after the adaptive phase correction. This improvement is vividly seen after a simple morphological filtering. The experiment is performed using a twisted nematic liquid crystal display SLM in transmission.
