Abstract
A method for reconstructing optical properties of a diffracting object immersed in a liquid medium using a reconstruction system that comprises a spatially coherent light source and a matrix photodetector, wherein the liquid medium and the matrix photodetector are separated by a distance along a vertical direction. The method comprises illuminating the liquid medium, measuring (with the matrix photodetector) an intensity of a diffraction pattern transmitted by the illuminated medium along a vertical direction, and reconstructing the optical properties of the diffracting object at a reconstruction height according to a reconstruction algorithm from the measured intensity, wherein the reconstruction height has a value less than that of the distance between the medium and the matrix photodetector along the vertical direction.
