We propose and implement a broadband, compact, and low-cost wavefront sensing scheme by simply placing a thin diffuser in the close vicinity of a camera. The local wavefront gradient is determined from the local translation of the speckle…

The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a linearly-varying index of refraction is a fundamental problem in wave physics, being relevant in fusion science for describing certain wave-based heating and diagnostic schemes. Here, an exact…

This paper gives a short survey of some basic results related to estimates of fractional integrals and Fourier transforms. It is closely adjoint to our previous survey papers \cite{K1998} and \cite{K2007}. The main methods used in the paper…

We generalize the notion of the Franhoufer diffraction from a single slit and a circular aperture to the case of partially temporal coherent and quasimonochromatic light. The problem is studied analytically and the effect of coherence…

Silicon photonic wavefront phase-tilt sensors for wavefront monitoring using surface coupling grating arrays are demonstrated. The first design employs the intrinsic angle dependence of the grating coupling efficiency to determine local…

Locating where transient signals travel between a source and receiver requires a final step that is needed after using a theory of diffraction such as the integral theorem of Helmholtz and Kirchhoff. Introduced here, the final step accounts…

Fundamental rules and definitions of Fractional Differintegrals are outlined. Factorizing 1-D and 2-D Helmholtz equations four fractional eigenfunctions are determined. The functions exhibit incident and reflected plane waves as well as…

Fourier transform methods are used to analyze functions and data sets to provide frequencies, amplitudes, and phases of underlying oscillatory components. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) methods offer speed advantages over evaluation of…

We study an inverse scattering problem in which the far-field spectral cross-correlation functions of scattered fields are used to determine the unknown dielectric susceptibility of the scattering object. One-photon states for the incident…

We define an approximate version of the Fourier transform on $2^L$ elements, which is computationally attractive in a certain setting, and which may find application to the problem of factoring integers with a quantum computer as is…

Modern design of complex optical systems relies heavily on computational tools. These typically utilize geometrical optics as well as Fourier optics, which enables the use of diffractive elements to manipulate light with features on the…

The complex wave representation (CWR) converts unsigned 2D distance transforms into their corresponding wave functions. Here, the distance transform S(X) appears as the phase of the wave function \phi(X)---specifically,…

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…

Expressions describing the vortex beams, which are generated in a process of Fresnel diffraction of a Gaussian beam, incident out of waist on a fork-shaped gratings of arbitrary integer charge p, and vortex spots in the case of Fraunhofer…

Gratings and holograms are patterned surfaces that tailor optical signals by diffraction. Despite their long history, variants with remarkable functionalities continue to be discovered. Further advances could exploit Fourier optics, which…

We develop the convergence theory for a well-known method for the interpolation of functions on the real axis with rational functions. Precise new error estimates for the interpolant are de- rived using existing theory for trigonometric…

Consider the incidence of a time-harmonic electromagnetic plane wave onto a biperiodic dielectric grating, where the surface is assumed to be a small and smooth perturbation of a plane. The diffraction is modeled as a transmission problem…

Fast Fourier Transform based phase screen simulations give accurate results only when the screen size ($G$) is much larger than the outer scale parameter ($L_0$). Otherwise, they fall short in correctly predicting both the low and high…

This paper introduces a novel wavefront sensing approach that relies on the Fourier analysis of a single conventional direct image. In the high Strehl ratio regime, the relation between the phase measured in the Fourier plane and the…

The Fourier inversion of phased coherent diffraction patterns offers images without the resolution and depth-of-focus limitations of lens-based tomographic systems. We report on our recent experimental images inverted using recent…
