Validity of the empty-beam correction in near-field imaging

Abstract: Extended wavefronts are used for coherent full field imaging of objects based on solving the inverse Fresnel diffraction problem. To this end, the conventional data correction step is given by division of the recorded object image by the intensity pattern of the empty beam. This division of intensities in the detection plane is a rather crude approximation for the separation of the complex valued object and probing fields. Here we present a quantitative error estimate, along with its mathematical proof, and co… Show more

“…The division is carried out in intensities, which obviously can not be correct, since it neglects the complex-valued nature of the wave field. The error of this division has been previously illustrated [53] and mathematically analyzed [54]. In the case of a point source the division is correct, but not for extended sources.…”

“…In conventional NFH, when dealing with distorted probes the approximative hologram of O [54] is recovered by flat-field correction and then used as input for a phase reconstruction algorithm. In contrast to this standard approach we make use of the two available measurements in an iterative reconstruction scheme, cf.…”

“…The following sections build up on the work that has been published by us in [36,48]. We study the validity of the product approximation in the detector plane in case of extended source sizes by providing a rigorous error estimate which also identifies the relevant experimental parameters.…”
