Abstract
We propose an experimental set-up working in the optical domain for determi ning the phase of the field diffracted by an object. We show that our appar atus can be used to reconstruct the deterministic profile of rough surfaces . We consider the particular case of diffraction gratings. (C) 2001 Elsevie r Science B.V.
