Method and apparatus for the simultaneous imaging of the amplitude and of the quantitative phase contrast by numerical reconstruction of digital holograms

摘要

A method for the numerical reconstruction of digital holograms which allows simultaneously amplitude and quantitative phase contrast imaging. The reconstruction method computes the propagation of the field that would be diffracted by the hologram during a standard hologram reconstruction. The method requires the adjustment of several reconstruction parameters for the definition of a digital replica of the reference wave. The method includes a digital method for the correction of the phase aberrations. The method can be used to reconstruct a set of holograms taken in different conditions. The method can be used to reconstruct several images from a single hologram taken with more than one reference waves and/or more than one object waves.
