Abstract: | By using the polarization matrix and propagation equation of the cross-spectral density function matrix, the spectral shifts and spectral switches of partially coherent vector beams propagating through an astigmatic aperture lens are studied, where the effect of lens astigmatism and beam cross-correlation on the spectral switches is stressed. It is shown that the critical position, spectral transition height and spectral minimum at spectral switches depend on the astigmatism. The beam cross-correlation plays a role in spectral switches under the condition that a polarizer is inserted. The spectral switch vanishes when the astigmatic coefficient is larger than a certain value, or the cross-correlation length is less than a certain value. |
