Abstract:
A modified form of Zernike polynomals and a set of generalized functions are introduced. These polynomials and functions are applied to the analysis of the Fresnel-region field of circulr apertures with non-uniform and non-symmetric illumination. With m 0, the general result reduces to that for non-uniform but circularly symmetric illumination obtained previously. a general expression for the far field Fraunhofer field of circular apertures with general illumination is aso derived. Finally, a simple example is given as an ilustration. Author
