A Phasics quantitative phase imaging (QPI) camera is installed on a classical bright-field microscope. No modification of the microscope is required. Phasics expert software outputs optical path difference (OPD) maps that can be easily converted to a change of refractive index map as follows: OPD = (n2 – n1) x d, with n2 and n1 being the respectives indices of refraction of the surrounding material and the waveguide and d being he thickness of the index change area.
