Diffraction to De-Diffraction
Abstract
Description
De-diffraction (DD), a new procedure to totally cancel diffraction effects from wave-fields is presented, whereby the full field from an aperture is utilized and a truncated geometrical field is obtained, allowing infinitely sharp focusing and non-diverging beams. This is done by reversing a diffracted wave-fields' direction. The method is derived from the wave equation and demonstrated in the case of Kirchhoff's integral. An elementary bow-wavelet is described and the DD process is related to quantum and relativity theories.
