Experimental generation of partially coherent besinc pseudo-Schell model sources using a digital micromirror device: comment
The authors of J. Opt. Soc. Am. B 42 , 1804 ( 2025 ) JOBPDE 0740-3224 10.1364/JOSAB.564315 generate a besinc pseudo-Schell-model source—a member of a class of partially coherent beams known as self-focusing nonuniformly correlated sources—via the incoherent sum of pseudo-modes. Here, we show how such a source can be synthesized more quickly using coherent modes.
