Focusing analysis of the pinhole photon sieve: individual far-field model.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, a new class of diffractive optical element called a photon sieve, which consists of a great number of pinholes, was developed for the focusing and imaging of soft x rays. In terms of the closed-form formula for the far field of individual pinholes and the linear superposition principle, we present a simple yet accurate analytical model for the focusing of the pinhole photon sieve. This model is applicable to arbitrary paraxial illumination with arbitrary complex amplitude distribution at the photon sieve plane. We check the validity range of this model by comparing it with the exact Fresnel diffraction integral. Some special problems, such as the individual quasi-far-field correction for very large pinholes and the related phase shift induced by this correction, are also discussed.

Nonparaxial model for the focusing of high-numerical-aperture photon sieves.
Recently, a paraxially individual far-field model was presented for the focusing and imaging analysis of pinhole photon sieves. By use of a local Taylor expansion of the integrated function of the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction formula, the small-size property of the individual pinholes, and the linear superposition principle, we extend this model to the nonparaxial case of high-numerical-aper...

متن کاملGeneralized photon sieves: fine control of complex fields with simple pinhole arrays
Spatial shaping of light beams has led to numerous new applications in fields such as imaging, optical communication, and micromanipulation. However, structured radiation is less well explored beyond visible optics, where methods for shaping fields are more limited. Binary amplitude filters are often used in these regimes and one such example is a photon sieve consisting of an arrangement of pi...
