Hello,
I am trying to compare the RMS spot size performance of a perfectly collimated beam vs a diverging beam in my optical system in sequential mode.
I was wondering if anyone would have any good ideas? From my limited understanding all fields in sequential mode are collimated, but can be varied in tilts?
Thank you!
Travis

If surface 0 has a thickness of infinity, then the fields correspond to collimated beams. You can use instead use a finite value for the thickness, in which case the fields will be point sources emanating from this object surface.
