Input Beam patterns =================== To simulate the light field of an incident beam of given type through a given optical medium, the following functions provide the initial conditions of the complex field, which then are propagated through the medium: Gaussian/Bessel beams --------------------- **Gaussian/Bessel beams** .. image:: _static/pupil_gauss.png :width: 100px :align: right .. image:: _static/pupil_bessel.png :width: 100px :align: right .. autofunction:: biobeam.focus_field_beam_plane Cylindrical light sheet ----------------------- .. image:: _static/pupil_cylinder.png :width: 100px :align: right .. autofunction:: biobeam.focus_field_cylindrical_plane Bessel Lattices ---------------- .. image:: _static/pupil_lattice.png :width: 100px :align: right .. autofunction:: biobeam.focus_field_lattice_plane
