Abstract
In this paper, we study the influence of the M2 quality factor of an incident beam on the reconstruction performance of a computer generated hologram (CGH). We use a statistical method to analyze the evolution of different quality criteria such as diffraction efficiency, root mean square error, illumination uniformity or correlation coefficient calculated in the numerical reconstruction versus the increasing M2 quality factor. The simulation results show us that this factor must always be taken into account in the CGH design when the M2 value is bigger than 2.
