Abstract

Based on the fact that a hard-edge aperture function can be expanded into a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, the approximate analytical expressions for the output field distribution of a flattened Gaussian beam passing through the apertured fractional Fourier transforming systems are derived. By using the approximate analytical formulae and diffraction integral formulae, some numerical simulation comparisons are done, and it is shown that our method can significantly improve the numerical calculation efficiency.
