When a plane electromagnetic wave impinges upon a diffraction grating or other periodic structures, reflected and transmitted waves propagate away from the structure in different radiation channels. A diffraction anomaly occurs when the…
Self-similar solutions of the coherent diffusion equation are derived and measured. The set of real similarity solutions is generalized by the introduction of a nonuniform phase surface, based on the elegant Gaussian modes of optical…

In this paper the author studies the problem of the homogenization of a diffusion perturbed by a periodic reflection invariant vector field. The vector field is assumed to have fixed direction but varying amplitude. The existence of a…
For over a century diffraction theory has been thought to limit the resolution of focusing and imaging in the optical domain. The size of the smallest spot achievable is inversely proportional to the range of spatial wavevectors available.…
Most of the physically based techniques for rendering translucent objects use the diffusion theory of light scattering in turbid media. The widely used dipole diffusion model (Jensen et al. 2001) applies the diffusion-theory formula derived…

We consider a large class of physical fields $u$ written as double inverse Fourier transforms of some functions $F$ of two complex variables. Such integrals occur very often in practice, especially in diffraction theory. Our aim is to…

We report on the development of an instrument for the measurement of the Encircled Angular Flux (EAF) and on establishing its metrological traceability at the required level of uncertainty. We designed and built for that purpose two…
Motivated by the existence problem of Fourier frames on fractal measures, we introduce Bessel and frame measures for a given finite measure on $\br^d$, as extensions of the notions of Bessel and frame spectra that correspond to bases of…
We consider the reflection of a photon by a two-level system in a quasi-one-dimensional waveguide. This is important in part because it forms the backdrop for more complicated proposals where many emitters are coupled to the waveguide:…
In this work, the properties of the radiation emitted by a corner reflector with an electric dipole feeder are analyzed in the optical domain where the distance between the dipole and the corner apex can be large in terms of the optical…
We experimentally address the wave-vector and polarization dependence of the internal conical refraction phenomenon by demonstrating that an input light beam of elliptical transverse profile refracts into two beams after passing along one…
We propose a simpler derivation of the probability density function of Feller Diffusion using the Fourier Transform and solving the resulting equation via the Method of Characteristics. We also discuss simulation algorithms and confirm key…
We established a new method called Discrete Weierstrass Fourier Transform, a faster and more generalized Discrete Fourier Transform, to approximate discrete data. The theory of this method as well as some experiments are analyzed in this…
For spherical and parabolic averages of the Fourier transform of fractal measures, we obtain new upper bounds on rates of decay by an "intermediate dimension" trick.
Diffraction images with continuous rotation symmetry arise from amorphous systems, but also from regular crystals when investigated by powder diffraction. On the theoretical side, pinwheel patterns and their higher dimensional…
Explicit analytical expressions for the drag and diffusion coefficients of a spherical particle attached to the interface between two immiscible fluids are constructed for the case of a small viscosity ratio between the fluid phases. The…
We prove that the Fourier transform of self-similar measures on the complex plane has fast decay outside of a very sparse set of frequencies, with quantitative estimates, extending the results obtained in the real line, first by R. Kaufman,…
