Equivalence theorem for the spectral density of light waves on weak scattering

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The Equivalence theorem for the spectral density of light waves on weak scattering is discussed. It is shown that when a spatially coherent plane light wave is scattered from two entirely different media, the far-zone spectral density may have identical distribution provided the low-frequency antidiagonal spatial Fourier components of the correlation function of the media are the same. An example of light waves on scattering from a Gaussian Schell model medium is discussed, and the condition on which two different media may produce identical spectral densities is presented.
