Abstract
We report an effective approach to analyze the effect of different amplitude patterns on image quality of asymmetric illumination-based differential phase contrast (AIDPC) microscope. Specifically, we investigate how the amplitude pattern can enhance the imaging quality. Two types of amplitude patterns are tested by the pseudospectral time-domain (PSTD) simulation. Preliminary simulation show promising results. Furthermore, the reported simulation may enhance the AIDPC system by helping researchers to optimize the optical system and facilitate new optical imaging strategies on AIDPC imaging.
