Reconstructing an object solely from its scattered intensity distribution is a common problem that occurs in many applications. Currently, there are no efficient direct methods to reconstruct the object, though in many cases, with some prior knowledge, iterative algorithms result in reasonable reconstructions. Unfortunately, even with advanced computational resources, these algorithms are highly time consuming. Here we present a novel rapid all-optical method based on a digital degenerate cavity laser, whose most probable lasing mode well approximates the object. We present experimental results showing the high speed (<100 ns) and efficiency of our method in agreement with our numerical simulations and analysis. The method is scalable, and can be applicable to any two dimensional object with known compact support, including complex-valued objects. |
