Abstract

We consider several topics amenable to analysis in general form by the ray matrix diffraction integral.1 The first is optical transfer functions for both coherent and incoherent light. These are defined in terms of two ray matrices, that for the optics between the input plane and the limiting aperture, and that for the limiting aperture and the output plane.
