The Fourier transform is a popular method for analyzing and processing interference data in which spectrum leakage occurs. Generally, window function (also called apodization function) weighting is employed to limit spectrum leakage. A rectangular window

Absorption and Light Localization in One-Dimensional Apodized Photonic Crystals
Apodization is a well-known method designed to control the propagation of light in photonic crystals (PCs) and has a variety of applications. Apodization involves modulating the depth of refractive index variation in PCs.

Interferometric apodization of rectangular apertures
We describe the principle of an apodization technique for rectangular apertures that can be implemented using a Michelson or a Mach-Zender interferometer. Using several interferometers, any integer power of cosine functions can be obtained. The technique

Phase-induced amplitude apodization complex-mask coronagraph tolerancing and analysis [PDF]
Phase-Induced Amplitude Apodization Complex Mask Coronagraphs (PIAACMC) offer high-contrast performance at a small inner-working angle ( 70%). The complex mask is a multi-zone, phase-shifting mask comprised of tiled hexagons which vary in depth.

Robustness of atmospheric trace gas retrievals obtained from low-spectral-resolution Fourier transform infrared absorption spectra under variations of interferogram length [PDF]
This study examines the sensitivity of atmospheric trace gas column retrievals from ground-based Fourier transform interferometer measurements to variations in the number of points in the recorded interferograms.

Moiré‐Induced Symmetry Breaking of Charge Order in van der Waals Heterostructures
A uniaxial moiré potential in misfit (MS)1+δTaS2 heterostructures selectively reshape charge order: the embedded 1H‐TaS2 layer hosts an incommensurate charge‐density wave, fragmented into nanometer domains and stripped of threefold symmetry. Superconductivity, however, remains uniform and fully gapped, revealing heterosymmetry stacking as a selective ...
