representation of an OPCM. (b) 2D visual representation of the FDTD OPCM model
using incoherent illumination by two planes waves at a polar angle of 30
degrees. For each of the two plane waves, the propagation of light is modeled
as a combination of two parallel wave phenomena: (i) propagation of the
reference (R) beam without the cell, and (ii) propagation of the diffracted (D) beam
due to the cell.
