چکیده

The use of rays to construct fields is illustrated by finding the field in the region 3>0 when the field is given on the plane z = 0. This construction is valid for complex rays as well as real ones. The method is applied to a gaussian field in the plane z=0, in which case a gaussian beam results. The calculation involves only complex rays. Exactly the same results are also obtained by applying the method of stationary phase to an integral representation of the field. However, the ray method is simpler than the stationary-phase method, and it is also applicable to problems for which the stationary-phase method cannot be used because no integral representation of the field is known.

Numerical Calculation of Coupling Efficiency for an Elegant Hermite-Cosh-Gaussian Beams

The ABCD matrix method is used to simplifying the theoretical coupling efficiency calculation of Elegant Hermite-Cosh-Gaussian (EHChG) laser beams to a Single Mode Fiber (SMF) with a quadric lens formed on the tip. The integrals of coupling efficiency relation are calculated numerically by Boole method. Meanwhile, the structure parameters of surface-lensed fiber are optimized in numerical simul...

Ince-Gaussian beams in a quadratic-index medium.

The propagation of Ince-Gaussian beams in media where the refractive index varies quadratically with the distance from the optical axis is studied. Explicit expressions for the complex beam parameter and the longitudinal phase shift are derived and discussed. Ince-Gaussian eigenmodes with constant width can be obtained by satisfying a relation between the beam width and the quadratic-medium coe...

Propagation of Gaussian-apodized paraxial beams through first-order optical systems via complex coordinate transforms and ray transfer matrices.

We investigate the linear propagation of Gaussian-apodized solutions to the paraxial wave equation in free-space and first-order optical systems. In particular, we present complex coordinate transformations that yield a very general and efficient method to apply a Gaussian apodization (possibly with initial phase curvature) to a solution of the paraxial wave equation. Moreover, we show how this...
