Modeling Several Optical Components Using Scalar Diffraction Theory [PDF]
Compound systems are generally treated by geometrical optics, for instance, through the Gauss’ formalism. The objective is to simplify the process of image formation. However, this formalism does not include the wave characteristics of light and boundary

Diffractive Refractometer Based on Scalar Theory [PDF]
The measurement of the refractive index typically requires the use of optical ellipsometry which, although potentially very accurate, is extremely sensitive to the structural properties of the sample and its theoretical modeling, and typically requires specialized expertise to obtain reliable output data.

Two-dimension trapezoidal grating raytracing based on the scalar diffraction and scattering theory [PDF]
Diffraction grating is a fundamental optical element in spectral measurement or source monochromation. A newly designed grating named as two-dimension trapezoidal grating (TG), which not only has non-harmonic diffraction, non-background contaminations ...

FESDIF -- Finite Element Scalar Diffraction theory code [PDF]
This document describes the theory and use of a powerful scalar diffraction theory based computer code for calculation of intensity fields due to diffraction of optical waves by two-dimensional planar apertures and lenses. This code is called FESDIF (Finite Element Scalar Diffraction).

Using Higher Diffraction Orders to Improve the Accuracy and Robustness of Overlay Measurements [PDF]
This paper introduces a method for improving the measurement performance of single wavelength overlay errors by incorporating higher diffraction orders. In this method, to enhance the accuracy and robustness of overlay error detection between layers, the

A 10× continuously zoomable metalens system with super-wide field of view and near-diffraction–limited resolution [PDF]
Moiré metalens is attractive for imaging applications due to their compact form factor and high zoom ratio. Here, we propose a novel Moiré zoom metalens system that achieves a continuous 10× zoom over a focal length range of 2.2–22 mm at 1,064 nm, while ...

Fast simulation of the influence of a refractive free-form microstructure on a wave field based on scalar diffraction theory [PDF]
We present a novel fast simulation approach to simulate the influence of refractive freeform microstructures on a wave field. The FRISP (Finite Refractive Index Selective Propagation) method combines the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral with a ...

Photonic-Doppler-Velocimetry, Paraxial-Scalar Diffraction Theory and Simulation [PDF]
In this report I describe current progress on a paraxial, scalar-field theory suitable for simulating what is measured in Photonic Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) experiments in three dimensions. I have introduced a number of approximations in this work in order to bring the total computation time for one experiment down to around 20 hours. My goals were: to
