Effect of Amplitude Filter on the Partially Space-Coherent Diffraction of a Defocused Optical System

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The far-field irradiance distribution of a defocused optical system with a circular diaphragm and illuminated by partially coherent light is studied in context of the theory developed by Wolf. It is shown that images with aberrations are improved with the help of aberration-compensating amplitude filters. The values of the coefficient of defocusing that satisfy the Strehl criterion are given for various values of correlation intervals contained in the aperture.
