Pocket module for single beam off-axis digital holography microscopy

Lab-on-a-chip (LoC) devices are extremely promising to bring diagnostic functions at the point-of-care. The LoC paradigm can be resumed in the will to emulate all the functionalities of a modern analysis lab onboard a portable platform, or at least a compact system, realizable at contained costs. At this scope, an important goal is the design of imaging schemes able to work out of the lab.
