Synthesis of fully continuous phase screens for tailoring the focal plane irradiance profiles

Conference ·
OSTI ID:249249

We present an iterative procedure for constructing fully continuous phase screens for tailoring the focal plane intensity distributions. This algorithm alleviates the stagnations experienced in the application of the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm with a random initial phase screen and leads to efficient distribution of the incident energy into the desired focal plane profile.
