Abstract
An asymmetric cryptosystem is presented for encrypting multiple images in gyrator transform domains. In the encryption approach, the devil's spiral Fresnel lens variable pure phase mask is first designed for each image band to be encrypted by using devil' mask, random spiral phase and Fresnel mask, respectively. Subsequently, a novel random devil' spiral Fresnel transform in optical gyrator transform is implemented to achieved the intermediate output. Then, the intermediate data is divided into two masks by employing random modulus decomposition in the asymmetric process. Finally, a random permutation matrix is utilized to obtain the ciphertext of the intact algorithm. For the decryption approach, two divided masks (private key and ciphertext) need to be imported into the optical gyrator input plane simultaneously. Some numerical experiments are given to verify the effectiveness and capability of this asymmetric cryptosystem.
