We introduce a microscopic method that determines quantitative optical properties beyond
the optical diffraction limit and allows direct imaging of unstained living biological …

In this review, we summarize how the new concept of digital optics applied to the field of
holographic microscopy has allowed the development of a reliable and flexible digital …

Background Digital holography provides a non-invasive measurement of the quantitative
phase shifts induced by cells in culture, which can be related to cell volume changes. It has …

We present experimental validation of a new reconstruction method for off-axis digital
holographic microscopy (DHM). This method effectively suppresses the object …

Telecentric architecture is proposed for circumventing, by the pure-optical method, the
residual parabolic phase distortion inherent to standard configuration of digital holographic …

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) of live cells allows label-free assessment of cell
morphology and quantitative estimation of cell thickness, and therefore volume. Of the …

As a label-free, nondestructive method, phase contrast is by far the most popular microscopy
technique for routine inspection of cell cultures. However, features of interest such as …

We propose a method to suppress the so-called zero-order term in a hologram, based on an
iterative principle. During the hologram acquisition process, the encoded information …

In a digital holographic microscopy (DHM) system, different microscope objectives (MOs) will
introduce different phase distortions and thus lead to measurement errors. To address this …

In digital holographic microscopy, if an optical setup is well aligned, the phase curvature
introduced by the microscope objective (MO) together with the illuminating wave to the …
