Beam propagation and the ABCD ray matrices.

چکیده
We have generalized the ABCD propagation law, Q(2) = (AQ(1) + B)/(CQ(1) + D), for an optical system by introducing a generalized complex radius of curvature Q for a general optical beam. The real part of 1/Q is related to the mean radius of curvature of the wave front, while the imaginary part is related to the second moment of the amplitude of the beam.

متن کاملActive laser radar systems with stochastic electromagnetic beams in turbulent atmosphere.
Propagation of stochastic electromagnetic beams through paraxial ABCD optical systems operating through turbulent atmosphere is investigated with the help of the ABCD matrices and the generalized Huygens-Fresnel integral. In particular, the analytic formula is derived for the cross-spectral density matrix of an electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beam. We applied our analysis for the A...
متن کاملGeneralized Helmholtz-Gauss beam and its transformation by paraxial optical systems.
We introduce the generalized Helmholtz-Gauss (gHzG) beam and analyze its propagation through optical systems described by ABCD matrices with real and complex elements. The transverse mathematical structure of the gHzG beam is form invariant under paraxial transformations and reduces to those of ordinary HzG and modified HzG beams as special cases. We derive a closed-form expression for the frac...
