Direct imaging of phase objects enables conventional deconvolution in bright field light microscopy.

In transmitted optical microscopy, absorption structure and phase structure of the specimen determine the three-dimensional intensity distribution of the image. The elementary impulse responses of the bright field microscope therefore consist of separate absorptive and phase components, precluding g...
