International audience. The article introduces an optical microscopy technique capable of simultaneously acquiring quantitative fluorescence and phase (or equivalently wavefront) images with a single camera sensor, avoiding any delay between both images, or registration of images acquired separately. The method is based on the use of a 2-dimensional diffraction grating (aka cross-grating) positioned at a millimeter distance from a 2-color camera. Fluorescence and wavefront images are extracted from the two color channels of the camera, and retrieved by image demodulation. The applicability of the method is illustrated on various samples, namely fluorescent micro-beads, bacteria and mammalian cells.
