Partial Coherence in modern optics: Emil Wolf's legacy in the 21st century
arXiv:2001.05561 · doi:10.1016/bs.po.2019.11.008
Abstract
We highlight the impact of Emil Wolf's work on coherence and polarization on an ever increasing amount of applications in the 21 st century. We present a brief review of how partial coherence at the level of increasing order of coherence functions is leading to evolution in the better methods for microscopy, imaging, optical coherence tomography; speckle imaging; propagation through random media. This evolution in our capabilities is expected to have wide ramifications in Science and Engineering.
