I mentioned this book in a recent holography thread, but I'll mention it here again. Check out the Holography Handbook:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0894960164/?tag=pfamazon01-20

It has lots of practical tips for making your own holograms, including making your optical table with a sand table -- pretty creative. You'll still need a laser with a reasonable coherence length, but the rest of the stuff is easy to make or buy from Edmund Scientific, etc.

I also found this http://www.holokits.com/holography_kit_1g.htm", but I can't vouch for the quality.

A few friends of mine did a Holography project for an experimental physics class last year. I'll see if I can find a copy of the paper for you.

It need money to buy . I want something free . Do you have any free information on creating holograms

I want to learn the tradisional way to make hologram but the link you recommend to me is not the tradisional way because it doesn't use laser . Do you have another link .
