Apodizer
- class hcipy.optics.Apodizer(apodization)[source]
Bases:
OpticalElementA thin apodizer.
This apodizer can apodize both in phase and amplitude.
- Parameters:
- apodizationField or scalar or function of wavelength
The apodization that we want to apply to any input wavefront.
Methods Summary
backward(wavefront)Propagate a wavefront backward through the optical element.
forward(wavefront)Propagate a wavefront forward through the optical element.
Methods Documentation
- backward(wavefront)[source]
Propagate a wavefront backward through the optical element.
A backward propagation is a literal backward propagation through the element. It is not (in general) the inverse of the forward propagation, except in cases where energy is conserved.
This function will be implemented by the derived class.
- Parameters:
- wavefrontWavefront
The wavefront to propagate.
- Returns:
- Wavefront
The propagated wavefront.
