A method to create instructive, nonuniform aperture functions using spatial frequency filtering is described. The diffraction from a single slit in the Fresnel limit and the interference from a double slit in the Fraunhofer limit are…
We introduce and experimentally implement Fourier-plane phase synchronization for optical microscopy, and demonstrate its performance with interferometric scattering microscopy. By combining a photothermal phase plate and laser beam…
A formula for the wavefront of a wave reflected from a diffraction grating with an arbitrary surface profile, as well as with arbitrary non-equidistant and non-parallel grooves was obtained. It was shown that the wavefront of the reflected…
We develop an amended ray optics description for reflection at the curved dielectric interfaces of optical microresonators which improves the agreement with wave optics by about one order of magnitude. The corrections are separated into two…
This paper concerns diffraction-tomographic reconstruction of an object characterized by its scattering potential. We establish a rigorous generalization of the Fourier diffraction theorem in arbitrary dimension, giving a precise relation…
Diffraction tomography is a widely used inverse scattering technique for quantitative imaging of weakly scattering media. In its conventional formulation, diffraction tomography assumes monochromatic plane wave illumination. This…
Conventional methods of wavefront reconstruction from the raw data of the Shack-Hartmann sensor use the focal spot shifts and discard the high-frequency information about the wavefront. Phase-retrieval-based methods treat the Hartmann…
Diffraction tomography is an inverse scattering technique used to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the material properties of a weakly scattering object. The object is exposed to radiation, typically light or ultrasound, and the…
Diffraction of a surface wave on a rectangular wedge with impedance faces is studied using the Sommerfeld-Malyuzhinets technique. An analog of Landau's bypass rule in the theory of plasma waves is introduced for selection of a correct…
Traditionally, the diffraction of a scalar wave satisfying Helmholtz equation through an aperture on an otherwise black screen can be solved approximately by Kirchhoff's integral over the aperture. Rubinowicz, on the other hand, was able to…
An explanation for the origin of asymmetry along the preferential axis of the PSF of an AO system is developed. When phase errors from high altitude turbulence scintillate due to Fresnel propagation, wavefront amplitude errors may be…
The Rayleigh-Modal method is used to calculate the electromagnetic field within the grooves of a perfectly conducting, rectangular-shaped 1D diffraction grating. An \emph{enhancement coefficient} ($\eta$) is introduced in order to quantify…
This paper presents the characterization of near-field propagation regions for phased array antennas, with a particular focus on the propagation boundaries defined by Fraunhofer and Fresnel distances. These distances, which serve as…
A wave near an isolated turning point is typically assumed to have an Airy function profile with respect to the separation distance. This description is incomplete, however, and is insufficient to describe the behavior of more realistic…
This work contains a systematic treatment of single particle Synchrotron Radiation and some application to realistic beams with given cross section area, divergence and energy spread. Standard theory relies on several approximations whose…
Fourier transform-based methods enable accurate, dispersion-free simulations of time-domain scattering problems by evaluating solutions to the Helmholtz equation at a discrete set of frequencies sufficient to approximate the inverse Fourier…
A popular pedagogical approach for introducing diffraction is to assume normal incidence of light on a single slit or a plane transmission grating. Interesting cases of diffraction from a grating at orientations other than normal incidence…
We improve on Fourier transforms (FT) between imaginary time $\tau$ and imaginary frequency $\omega_n$ used in certain quantum cluster approaches using the Hirsch-Fye method. The asymptotic behavior of the electron Green's function can be…
The Fourier transform is approximated over a finite domain using a Riemann sum. This Riemann sum is then expressed in terms of the discrete Fourier transform, which allows the sum to be computed with a fast Fourier transform algorithm more…
The smallest possible focus is achieved when the focused wave front is the time reversed copy of the light wave packet emitted from a point in space (S. Quabis et al., Opt. Commun. 179 (2000) 1-7). The best physical implementation of such a…
