High Resolution Wavefront Measurement with Phase Retrieval Using a Diffractive Overlapping Micro Lens Array

  • Conference paper
Fringe 2013

Abstract

For the measurement of wave fronts there is a variety of methods, which can be divided into interferometric techniques, gradient-based methods, iterative phase retrieval and phase space methods. Each of these methods has its advantages and disadvantages. The proposed technique is a combination of iterative phase retrieval and a diffractive overlapping micro lens array. Unlike interferometric or holographic methods, phase retrieval methods require no reference wave. Thus no laser is required and the measurement set-up is very simple.
