Phase-Contrast imaging system with typical output.
a) A basic phase-contrast imaging system with input phase mask, phase-contrast filter and 4-f lens arrangement and b) a typical output pattern used to create blue-detuned optical dipole potentials for an atom capacitor. The blue (white) areas correspond to light (absence of light).
