Title
Discrete Talbot Effect
Abstract
The effects of discrete Talbot revivals in waveguide arrays was analyzed. Talbot self-imaging effect always occurs irrespective of the pattern period, in discrete configurations. In discrete structures, the periodicities leading to discrete Talbot revivals are those for which cosine of cos(2π/N) is a rational number. It was found that Talbot effect, fractional as well as fractal revivals are also known to occur at distances that are rational or irrational multiples of zT respectively.
