Abstract:By using the quadratic spatial filtering (QSF) operation of interferograms, we propose a fast and accurate phase retrieval algorithm in 2-step phase-shifting interferometry (PSI), in which both the interference signal separation and blind phase shift estimation can be realized. Compared with the existed 2-step PSI algorithms, the proposed QSF algorithm reveals two advantages: First, when the background intensity is not accurately estimated, which is a serious problem in 2-step PSI, the distortion of the retrie… Show more
