Diffraction of Light
Problems on diffraction of lightDiffraction of light are solved in this last chapter. Diffraction is bending or spreading of lightLight at aperture... -
Quantum Diffraction: Emergence of the Quantum Substructure of Light
InYoung’ double slit, quantum formulation Diffraction, QED description this chapter we discuss an entirely quantum mechanical description of... -
Diffraction-Limited Optics and Techniques
The potential diffraction-limited angular resolution of an X-ray telescope with aperture diameter D = 1 m operating at 1 keV is Δθ ≈ λ∕D = 260 μ arc... -
A Second-Order Optical Differentiator Based on a Metal–Dielectric–Metal Composite Structure
AbstractThe optical properties of a composite structure consisting of two sequentially arranged three-layer metal–dielectric–metal (MDM) structures...

What Huygens Could Have Written on Diffraction
This is a highly speculative chapter. As far as we know Huygens never said or wrote anything on diffraction. Yet Huygens’ principle is perfectly fit... -
Diffraction Gratings for X-ray Astronomy
We briefly review the physical principles of diffraction grating spectrometers for astrophysical X-ray spectroscopy, in the context of the resolution... -
Illumination-Coded Optical Diffraction Tomography
Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) is a label-free 3D light microscopy technique that utilizes refractive index (RI) distributions as a source of... -
High-Frequency Diffraction and Elongated Bodies
This chapter presents the classical boundary-layer method in its application to high-frequency diffraction problems. We discuss its drawbacks when... -
Diffraction
This chapter introduces the subject of diffraction—the key mechanism that determines how light propagates through the atmosphere and comes to final... -
Classical Diffraction and Diffractive Imaging
In contrast to conventional light, x-rays have allowed us to see the invisible. Invisibility may be caused by the lack of penetration of visible... -
Diffraction by an Elliptic Cylinder
The modified method of the parabolic equation is applied to the 2D problem of diffraction by a strongly elongated ellipse. The resulting... -
Acoustic Wave Diffraction by Spheroid
In this chapter, we consider high-frequency diffraction of scalar waves by a strongly elongated spheroid. The derived approximations for the near and... -
Electromagnetic Wave Diffraction by Spheroid
The results of the previous chapter are generalized to the electromagnetic wave diffraction by the strongly elongated spheroid. It is noted that the... -
Study of Diffraction Results of Some Cubic Crystals
In earlier chapters, we studied about the mirror as the only fundamental symmetry in crystalline solid because all other symmetries can be easily... -
Diffraction and Blockage
In case the line-of-sight between a transmitter and a receiver is blocked, diffraction and alternative propagation paths exploiting scattering and... -
Importance of d-Spacing in Diffraction of Crystals
Braggs’ equation suggests that the interplanar d-spacing is an important and integral part of a diffraction process. Therefore, kee** in mind the... -
X-ray diffraction under grazing incidence conditions
Material properties frequently relate to structures at or near surfaces, particularly in thin films. As a result, it is essential to understand these...
