Abstract

By expanding a hard aperture function into a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, approximate propagation formula is derived in the situation that the beam generated by Gaussian mirror resonator passes through a paraxial ABCD optical system with an annular aperture. The corresponding forms for a circular aperture and a circular black screen are also given. Some numerical simulations are shown to illustrate propagation properties and focusing properties of the beam passing through a paraxial ABCD optical system with the three different kinds of aperture.
