Spectral polarization of Gaussian Schell-model beams

Research output: Contribution to JournalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

We present a class of broadband electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model sources whose state of polarization is both uniform and identical for all frequencies, but whose far-zone polarization properties strongly depend on wavelength. Also, these sources can produce beams whose polarized portion is always linearly polarized but with a polarization angle that evolves on propagation. Our results offer new insights into the behavior of broadband partially coherent sources.
