Abstract

We show that the optical properties of a sample with moderate scatter can be obtained by performing frequency domain measurements in a reflection geometry. In experiments and Monte Carlo simulations we show that absorption and scatter produce opposing trends in the amplitude signal and common trends in the phase signal. Therefore a measured amplitude and phase signal correspond to a unique combination of optical properties for a given phase function.
