Classical diffraction theory is used to investigate the effects of high numerical aperture on the focusing of coherent light. By expanding the diffracted beam in plane waves, we show that the lens action can be expressed as a succession of three Fourier transforms. Furthermore, polarization effects are included in the model in a natural way. Some numerical results of the theory are also presented.
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
