ZonePlate ComponentA component which models a zone plate by consierding the plate a secondary source and then by means of Monte Carlo sampling, evaluating the Fresnel-Kirchhoff integral implicitly by resampling the beam in a window defined by the focus_xw,focus_yh parameters. Caveat emptor I: this is a computationally heavy component to run. Caveat emptor II: for correct modelling of phase-interference phenomena, detectors used after the ZonePlate should be of the "PSD_monitor_coh" type. The zone plate can be either circular or linear. In the linear case, the "slits" are along the x-axis. Example: ZonePlate(radius=0.00015, L=0.15, lambda0=1, focus_xw=300e-9, focus_yh = 300e-9, focus_x0 = 0.0, focus_y0 = 0.0, dist=1)
