Accurate phase retrieval of complex point spread functions with deep residual neural networks

Phase retrieval, i.e. the reconstruction of phase information from intensity information, is a central problem in many optical systems. Here, we demonstrate that a deep residual neural net is able to quickly and accurately perform this task for arbitrary point spread functions (PSFs) formed by Zernike-type phase modulations. Five slices of the 3D PSF at different focal positions within a two micron range around the focus are sufficient to retrieve the first six orders of Zernike coefficients.
