Partially coherent Fresnel diffraction by a slit aperture. II. Axial intensity distributions

The general formula derived in a previous paper is applied to obtain the intensity distribution along the axis normal to a slit aperture in the Fresnel diffraction field when the spatial mutual coherence function of the illumination over the aperture takes three different forms of correlation. It is shown that the axial intensity distribution of Fresnel diffraction by the slit aperture is effectively influenced by the coherence condition across the diffracting aperture.

An analytical expression based on an improved Rayleigh–Sommerfeld diffraction formula with evanescent term is derived for analyzing the axial light intensity distribution throughout the whole space behind a Fresnel zone plate.

The validity of the general formulae for calculating the focal lengths and the relative intensities of the foci of a Fresnel zone plate is analyzed.

Propagation of vectorial Gaussian beams behind a circular aperture

Based on the vectorial Rayleigh diffraction integral and the hard-edge aperture function expanded as the sum of finite-term complex Gaussian functions, an approximate analytical expression for the propagation equation of vectorial Gaussian beams diffracted at a circular aperture is derived and some special cases are discussed. By using the approximate analytical formula and diffraction integral formula, some numerical simulation comparisons are done, and some special cases are discussed. We find that a circular aperture can produce the focusing effect but the beam becomes the shape of ellipse in the Fresnel region. When the Fresnel number is equal to unity, the beam is circular and the focused spot reaches a minimum.

Influence of the size of the grating on Talbot effect

The Fresnel theory of the Talbot effect of the grating is reviewed in this paper, and the general formula of the Fresnel diffraction of the grating with finite aperture size is presented. The aperture effect of the grating on the Talbot image is discussed and a number of numerical calculations are performed. The variation rule of the diffraction intensity distribution at the Talbot distance with the aperture size of the grating and the case at different Talbot distances are obtained through the calculations, and the corresponding explanations of these phenomena are given in this paper. We think that these discussions provide the theoretic basis for the practical application of the Talbot effect of the actual grating.

Diffraction loss analysis of a plane-parallel optical cavity with a phase step and a slit aperture

A model for calculating the round trip diffraction loss in a plane-mirror cavity with an intracavity phase step and an infinite slit aperture is developed. The round trip remaining intensity fraction for the low order transverse cavity modes can be calculated for any given location of the slit aperture and the phase step along the cavity and for any given phase delay on the phase step. The diffraction loss on the slit aperture is found to be a periodic function of the phase delay on the phase step. Transformation of the lasing spectrum emitted from a broadband pulsed dye laser on moving the phase step along the oscillator cavity is reproduced theoretically. The lasing spectrum affected by the phase step is interpreted as the wavelength dependence of the remaining intensity fraction for the principal transverse mode.
