Abstract
The possibility of using Talbot's effect for visualizing phase structures i s considered. The multiple pattern of the phase object illuminated by a mon ochromatic plane wave obtained by a filtering optical system is shown to ca use periodic spatial intensity patterns that reproduce the studied phase re lief. Computer simulations demonstrating the efficiency of this method are provided.
