description The binary computer-generated hologram (BCGH) has attracted much attention recently because it can address the high-speed binary spatial light modulator (SLM), such as a digital micromirror device (DMD) SLM. In this paper, our concern is the development of an algorithm to produce high-quality BCGHs. In particular, simulated annealing (SA) is an efficient algorithm used to produce a phase-only computer-generated hologram. In the study of SA for the production of a BCGH, we found some inherent shortcomings of SA, and the quality of the produced BCGHs is limited. Accordingly, we have modified SA and propose the simulated-annealing binary search (SABS) algorithm. We have also proposed a method to quickly determine the parameters for SABS. In the comparison with SA, the mean square error of the SABS BCGHs decreases by 32% on average. Therefore, the SABS is a promising technique for a high-quality holographic display by DMD.
