In this paper, a phase retrieval method is proposed to reconstruct the high-quality image free from undesired terms in on-axis digital holography (DH) with modified coherent diffraction imaging (MCDI). A random phase plate (RPP) is applied to generate a modulated diffraction pattern which forms an on-axis digital hologram with a plane reference wave, and a proper iterative algorithm is designed to reconstruct high-quality object information from both on-axis digital hologram and modulated diffraction pattern. Numerical simulations and experiments prove that both modulus and phase distributions can be accurately reconstructed within 100 iterations while the undesired twin image and zero-order diffraction can be effectively removed, thus demonstrating the feasibility of the suggested method.
