Fractional Talbot effect in phase space: A compact summation formula.
A phase space description of the fractional Talbot effect, occurring in a one--dimensional Fresnel diffraction from a periodic grating, is presented. Using the phase space formalism a compact summation formula for the Wigner function at rational multiples of the Talbot distance is derived. The summation formula shows that the fractional Talbot image in the phase space is generated by a finite s...
متن کاملPoisson Summation Formula for the Space of Functionals
In our last work, we formulate a Fourier transformation on the infinitedimensional space of functionals. Here we first calculate the Fourier transformation of infinite-dimensional Gaussian distribution exp ( −πξ ∞ −∞ α 2(t)dt ) for ξ ∈ C with Re(ξ) > 0, α ∈ L2(R), using our formulated Feynman path integral. Secondly we develop the Poisson summation formula for the space of functionals, and defi...
متن کاملAnalytical expression for phase distribution of a hexagonal array at fractional Talbot planes.
We describe a reciprocal-lattice vector method for analysis of the diffractive self-imaging (or Talbot effect) of a two-dimensional periodic object. Using this method we analyze the fractional Talbot effect of a hexagonal array and deduce a simple analytical expression for calculation of the complex amplitude distribution at any fractional Talbot plane. Based on this new formula, we design a he...
متن کاملA Multiparameter Summation Formula for Theta Functions
We generalize Warnaar's elliptic extension of a Macdonald multi-parameter summation formula to Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus. We start by a brief outline of the general theory of hypergeometric type series built from Jacobi theta functions [12, 13] (its extension to integrals [15] is not touched at all). Within this approach univariate elliptic hypergeometric series are defined as the ser...
متن کاملInteger, fractional and fractal Talbot effects
Self-images of a grating with period a, illuminated by light of wavelength ̧, are produced at distances z that are rational multiples p /q of the Talbot distance zT = a / ̧; each unit cell of a Talbot image consists of q superposed images of the grating. The phases of these individual images depend on the Gauss sums studied in number theory and are given explicitly in closed form; this simpli e...
