Effect Of Light

Fraunhofer diffraction pattern from a circular aperture with the diameter of 10µm was observed using an optical fiber microprobe. The optical fiber microprobe started to detect optical power when the distance between the probe and the circular aperture was more than 292µm. When the probe was moved in a lateral motion, the light propagation showed a Bessel function profile. When the optical fiber microprobe was moved from 293µm to 309µm from the centre of the circular aperture in a transverse motion, the power detected was not consistent with a continuation of maxima and minima due to the effect of light propagation from the circular aperture. We also observed that the distance between the probe and the centre of the circular aperture was directly proportional with the radius of focused spot and inversely proportional with the Fresnel number.

Confocal Resonator

The Fabry-Pèrot Interferometer, the confocal and the spherical resonator systems are investigated. The lowest-order traveling-wave type eigenmodes are calculated. Numerical values for the diffraction losses are given. The smallest diffraction losses are obtained for the general-type eigenmode of a confocal resonator system. The eigenfunctions of an open-walled resonator show a point of inflection as their characteristic feature. They are complex if the Fresnel Number is finite. When calculate over appropriate surfaces, their imaginary part, in the region close to the axis, decreases as F increases. In that region the waves resonate between the reflectors. Towards the rim of the system the imaginary part increases rapidly as do the diffracted waves associated with the imaginary part.
