摘要
When random electromagnetic beams passing through axially nonsymmetrical ABCD optical systems, the analytical formula for the transformation of the elements of 2 x 2 cross-spectral density matrix is obtained with the help of vector integration. We derive analytical expressions of the spectral degree of polarization, the spectral degree of coherence, and the spectral density in any output plane z > 0. Some numerical calculations are illustrated relating to the electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating through such optical systems. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
