A ray technique for analyzing holographic optical elements
Abstract
The paper discusses a quantum ray technique for simulating the operation of a holographic optical element concurrently with that of the optical system of which it is a part. A generalized expression is derived for the ray transformation law of a holographic optical element. Experimental data are presented which support the applicability of the ray technique for calculating aberrations of an optical system containing a holographic element.
