Abstract

We propose an approach for the optical encryption of ghost images reconstructed from the spatially correlated classical two-beam pairs. This approach has the capability of encrypting ghost images by flexibly manipulating the position correlation of a pair of "signal" and "idler" beams. We experimentally demonstrate that the perfect ghost image can be extracted by decrypting the encrypted information of an object, in particular, our approach under eavesdropping has a higher security for encryption compared with previous approaches.
