Abstract

Recovering the transmission matrix of a disordered medium is a challenging problem in disordered photonics. Usually, its reconstruction relies on a complex inversion that aims at connecting a fully-controlled input to the deterministic interference of the light field scrambled by the device. At the moment, iterative phase-retrieval protocols provide the fastest reconstructing frameworks, converging in a few tens of iterations. Exploiting the knowledge of speckle correlations, we construct a new phase retrieval algorithm that reduces the computational cost to a single iteration. Besides being faster, our method is effective also using less measurements than state-of-the-art protocols. Thanks to reducing computation time by one order of magnitude, our result can be groundbreaking for real-time optical operations in medical imaging.
