Coherence-gated holographic microscopy

Holographic microscopy as an important method of quantitative phase imaging became a significant imaging modality for label-free biomedical imaging suitable particularly for quantitative observation of live cell and profiling of its dry mass (Zangle and Teitell, Nature Methods, 2014). Applying for a coherence-gate effect results in a significant improvement in image quality and resolution, and also enables imaging of three-dimensional objects and objects in optically turbid media.

The thesis will focus on the research of the coherent gate effect in holographic microscopy and its use in quantitative phase imaging of biological objects.
