Abstract

This work presents detailed theoretical analysis of the effect of finite dimensions of an amplitude diffraction grating to the edge response function of the Talbot imaging. A diffraction of a plane wave is studied as well as a diffraction of a spherical one. The derived formulas can be used to refine the description of field propagation behind the amplitude diffraction grating; therefore, an analysis and an improvement of current applications, where the Talbot effect is used, can be realised.
