Abstract
Cyclostationary light, which accurately models ultrafast pulsed laser sources, is compared to a conventional
stationary light source. The nonzero cross-spectral correlations introduced by the
theory of cyclostationarity appreciably modify detection outputs. The diffraction patterns generated are, in general, different
than those obtained from stationary or deterministic fields. By creating a
general case ray tracing simulator, truly arbitrary diffraction masks can be utilized.
