Abstract

We first review transport of intensity and phase and show their use as a convenient tool to directly determine the unwrapped phase of an imaged object, either through conventional imaging or using digital holography. For both cases, either the traditional transport of intensity and phase, or with a modification, viz., electrically controllable transport of intensity and phase, can be used. The use of digital holography with transport of intensity for 3D topographic mapping of fingermarks coated with columnar thin films is shown as an illustrative application of this versatile technique.
