Resumen

The characteristics of partially coherent circular flattened Gaussian vortex beams in turbulent biological tissues are investigated, and the analytical formula for the cross-spectral density of this beam is derived. According to the cross-spectral density matrix, the average intensity and degree of polarization can be obtained. By numerical simulation, the distributions of the normalized average intensity and degree of polarization of partially coherent circular flattened Gaussian vortex beams are demonstrated on the research plane of turbulent biological tissues. The effects of the two beam parameters, the topological charge, the two transverse coherent lengths, and the structural constant of biological turbulence on the normalized average intensity and degree of polarization are analyzed. This study is of great significance for the potential application of partially coherent circular flattened Gaussian vortex beams in medical imaging and medical diagnosis.
