摘要

Computational ghost diffraction (CGD) with a higher-order cosh-Gaussian modulated incoherent source is investigated theoretically. The corresponding numerical simulations are given to see clearly the effects of the parameters of the higher-order cosh-Gaussian source on the imaging quality. Our results show that the resolution of the CGD patterns can be significantly improved by properly varying the source parameters. In addition, we numerically study the effect of the propagation distances in the CGD system and explore the CGD applicability in coherent diffraction imaging. These results may be helpful for implementation of high-resolution x-ray diffraction.
