Microscope with extension of the depth of field by employing a cubic phase plate on the surface of lens

An incoherent optical system with wavefront coding extends the depth of field (DOF) by employing a cubic phase plate (CPP). We designed a digital microscope with a CPP in the aperture stop and on the surface of the lens, which extended the DOF. In addition, we proposed a method in which the CPP can...
