Review text

In the present paper, an alternative method for explaining the diffraction phenomena in both near-field and far-field diffraction regimes with the same expression is proposed. The method is based on the superposition of waves with different path lengths. Some experimental results are presented, which are in good agreement with the simulations. The method can describe not only near-field diffraction but also far-field diffraction as well as the transition between them.
