Free‐Space Diffraction and Interference in a Transformed Frame

ABSTRACT For free propagation from a focus, the Hermite–Gauss wave functions of optics spread in space. In quantum mechanics, the Hermite–Gauss functions are referred to as the harmonic oscillator eigenfunctions. These functions are used here to describe the interference of wave packets. It has been...
