Abstract

We consider the effect of diffraction due to the finite width of pump radiation illuminating a nonlinear crystal, in which spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) occurs, on the spatial resolution of ghost images. We propose the required formal relations and the computational algorithm and perform numerical simulation with account for the influence of this distorting factor on the quality of ghost images.
