SIMULATION OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE
IN ITS PASSAGE THROUGH A DOE

Since at small distances, the calculation based on use of the ray-tracing , Fourrer-, Fresnel-, or Kirchhoff approximation fails to describe the wave behavior, one has numerically to solve the Maxwell equations using a finite difference method.
