The principles of amplitude and phase modulation of the spatial coherence of the optical
field are discussed. They are based on the modification of the phase-space diagram of the …

Based on the quantum mechanical version of wavelet transform (WT) W ψ f (μ, s)=⟨ ψ| U (μ,
s)| f⟩[Fan, HY; Lu, HL Opt. Lett. 2006, 31, 407] we further prove Parseval theorem and …

A homogeneous illumination of a microscope requires a homogeneous intensity distribution
in the field plane and in the pupil plane. An inhomogeneity in the pupil gives rise to a …

The recently introduced concept of spatial coherence wavelets is generalized to describe
the propagation of electromagnetic fields in the free space. For this aim, the spatial …

Malus' law, Fresnel–Arago interference laws and Stokes parameters are analyzed in the
framework of the tensor theory of the electromagnetic spatial coherence wavelets. It is …

The phase space representation of imaging with optical fields in any state of spatial
coherence is developed by using spatial coherence wavelets. It leads to new functions for …

The phase-space representation of the Fresnel-Fraunhofer diffraction of optical fields in any
state of spatial coherence is based on the marginal power spectrum carried by the spatial …

A method for analysing beam spots is discussed. It is based on the central reduced moments
of the spot and its associated density functions. These functions allow us to separately …

A description of Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction of quasi-homogenous optical fields in any
state of spatial coherence is presented, which clearly differs from the classical formalism …

An alternative approach to the relationship between the radiometry and the optical spatial
coherence is proposed. It is based on the concepts of classes of radiator pairs and the …
