Abstract
We have demonstrated that the extended ptychographic iterative engine (ePIE) algorithm can be applied to retrieve the phase information of the vectorial scattered field of a subwavelength object with the amplitude of the scattered field as input. We applied this technique combined with coherent Fourier scatterometry to determine the phase of the scattered field of a subwavelength grating, illuminated by a focused laser beam.
