Unconventional treatment of focal shift
1998, Vokinger, Urs, Dändliker, René, Blattner, Peter, Herzig, Hans-Peter
We present an unconventional approach for the explanation of focal shift behind a lens. It is based on the fact that, within the approximation of Fresnel diffraction, the intensity distributions in the conjugate planes of a lens are equal to their geometrical images. We show that the focus (position of highest intensity) is always shifted towards the lens. The results for a Gaussian beam and a uniform converging spherical wave are presented.
