Quantitative phase imaging using spectral domain phase microscopy without phase wrapping ambiguity
Abstract:
We demonstrate a method for quantitative phase (QP) imaging without 2π ambiguity using a spectral domain phase microscopy system. The method is capable of QP measurement of a large dynamic range with a high sensitivity. We determine an integer multiple of 2π to correct wrapped phases by calculating the phase shift difference between the detected interference fringe and simulated fringes. The presented method is quantitatively verified by measuring the vibration generated by a piezo linear stage and mapping the surface topography of a slanted mirror. QP imaging of red blood cells is also performed to demonstrate the method's capacity and application in biological imaging.

Single-Phase Two-Wire Line:
A single-phase line consists of two solid cylindrical conductors, denoted as x and y. Each conductor carries phasor currents ix and iy, respectively. Given that the sum of these currents is...
Capacitance: Single-Phase And Three-Phase Line
Single-Phase Lines
Consider a single-phase, two-wire transmission line with equal phase spacing energized by a voltage source. One conductor carries a uniform positive charge, while the other carries an equal negative charge. The capacitance C of the line can be derived from the voltage V between the conductors. For a one-meter section of the line, the capacitance is given...
Phase Changes
A substance melts or freezes at a temperature called its melting point and boils or condenses at its boiling point. These temperatures depend on pressure. High pressure favors the denser form of the substance, so typically, high pressure...
