Quantitative phase imaging, employing the refractive index as endogenous contrast agent, opens wide possibilities to perform high-contrast cell measurements enabling reliable diagnostics and assessable examination. This capability can be rather easily obtained in a common-path total-shear regime after introducing a grating or beam-splitter into a regular microscope layout with a (partially-)coherent light source. Although these solutions are attractive due to straightforward implementation, overall good stability (thanks to common-path configuration) and high contrast, they are limited in timespace- bandwidth product (TSBP) as multi-frame phase reconstruction is needed to ensure sufficient accuracy and robustness. Alternative single-shot Fourier transform based approaches do allow for dynamic imaging; however they need off-axis recording and thus limit detector bandwidth and can severely truncate object spectrum (phase lateral resolution), which stays virtually intact in the multi-frame approach. Additionally, low signal-to-noise ratio of recorded fringe pattern significantly adds to the error budget via low contrast, high noise and strong incoherent background. In this contribution we study an interesting way to bypass mentioned shortcomings by recording two out-of-phase interferograms simultaneously to subtract them and thus experimentally increase the signal-to-noise ratio of otherwise low-quality dimmed fringe patterns. Ideal subtraction should yield background-rejected and modulation-doubled π- hologram, however in reality additional processing is needed. We will investigate three algorithms for such processing. Filtered interferogram is then analyzed employing Hilbert spiral transform, which is not sensitive to the carrier frequency like the Fourier transform and preserves object spectrum also in quasi on-axis configurations. Finally, sacrificing the field of view to record two interferograms at once, we gain unique feature of significantly increased TSBP enabling realtime investigation of broad-spectrum (highly detailed) transparent objects with enhanced phase resolution and signal-tonoise ratio. We corroborate the claims successfully analyzing prostate cancer cells and flowing microbeads otherwise measurable only in static regime using time-consuming phase-shifting. The technique has been validated utilizing 20x/0.46NA objective in a regular Olympus BX-60 upright microscope.

Interference microscopy for biospecimen characterization based on the moiré phenomena is described. Two scenarios of incoherent multiplicative superimposition are employed: (1) object information carrying interferogram is superimposed with reference one or (2) two object interferograms are superimposed (with equal or opposite phase signs). Second strategy provides additional doubling of underlying phase function of interest. Superimposition can be performed using two experimental interferograms or single real interferogram and numerically designed reference structure in so-called digital moiré regime. Multiplicative superimposition of two periodic intensity distribution yields moiré pattern containing low spatial frequency difference beat term (moiré fringes – macrostructure) and high spatial frequency sum beat term (microstructure). The macrostructure was studied in great majority of previously reported moiré techniques. In this contribution we point attention onto the sum beat spatial frequency component and report efficient means for its recovery using numerically advanced digital filtering (variational/empirical decomposition approaches). Its single-frame (single-pattern) phase demodulation by 2D Hilbert spiral transform with enhanced accuracy follows - this feature comes from the fact that sum beat moiré term has high spatial frequency which is generally beneficial in single-frame fringe analysis and its phase function is be doubled. In particular spatial phase change is better sampled by fringes for denser interferogram and more importantly numerical filtering of fringe term of interest from background intensity is easier. We propose and preliminarily evaluate experimental proof-of-concept strategy where two interferograms with slight difference in spatial frequency are simultaneously recorded in two halves of CCD camera and superimposed multiplicatively. Proposed moiré technique opens up new possibilities in interference microscopy based bio-phase imaging mainly due to its data-driven enhanced phase sensitivity (fringe doubling effect) and real-time operation. Evaluation employing numerical simulations and validation using experimental recordings of phase bio-samples, i.e., prostate cancer cells are enclosed.
