Abstract
Phase retrieval can be useful in the measurement of optical surfaces and systems. It distinguishes itself through the simplicity of the experimental apparatus, just a detector array which collects light near a focal plane. Aspherics can be measured without null optics. The challenging part of the method is the estimation of the wavefront from the near-focus intensity measurements to reconstruct the wavefront.
