The Vector Modification of Huyghens-Fresnel Principle

The present approach to the diffractive element design is based on Kirchhoff scalar theory of diffraction. Predictions made by this theory become unreliable if the diffraction of polarized light is evaluated. The paper presents the vector correction of Huygens-Fresnel principle and suggests a method...
