Single shot white light interference microscopy with colour fringe analysis for quantitative phase imaging of biological cells

摘要

To quantitatively obtain the phase map of Onion and human red blood cell (RBC) (torn white light mterferogram we used Hilbert transform color fringe analysis technique. The three Red, Blue and Green color components are decomposed from single white light interferogram and Refractive index profile for Red, Blue and Green colour were computed in a completely non-invasive manner for Onion and human RBC The present technique might be useful for non-invasive determination of the refractive index variation within cells and tissues and morphological features of sample with ease of operation and low cost.
