Modeling Several Optical Components Using Scalar Diffraction Theory

Compound systems are generally treated by geometrical optics, for instance, through the Gauss’ formalism. The objective is to simplify the process of image formation. However, this formalism does not include the wave characteristics of light and boundary effects. The treatment of diffraction is not...
