Résumé

We present a new multi-illumination technique for the determination of the phase maps of unknown phase objects and wavefronts based on their diffraction patterns. An SLM is used to generate a sequence of probe light fields which illuminate the unknown object producing different diffraction patterns. Compared to similar diffraction pattern based approaches our technique benefits from a motionless multi-view operation and a significantly improved deconvolution algorithm convergence speed (tens of iterations versus hundreds). Computer simulations indicate that the extra information brought by the different diffraction patterns prevents convergence of the phase retrieval algorithm to spurious local minima solutions and results in faster convergence. We describe an experimental system built based on our approach using readily available, relatively low-cost components. Successful reconstructions of test targets from experimental diffraction patterns confirm the feasibility of the technique. Major sources of error are identified, solutions to these problems suggested and potential extensions to multi-resolution analysis of unknown wavefronts are proposed.
