5.5 Apodization

Figure 5-10 demonstrates how to use the Pupil Apodization. Select “Gaussian” from the Pupil drop down menu. Input “Gaussian Factor”. In this case, 1 is the input for the Gaussian Factor. The Apodization Profile plot is updated to show the Relative Intensity across the Pupil Cross Section

Pupil apodization using a gaussian factor. Higher gaussian factors result in steeper apodization profiles Figure 5-10 Pupil apodization using a gaussian factor. Higher gaussian factors result in steeper apodization profiles
