Abstract

The Wigner distribution function matrix of electromagnetic beams propagating in uniaxial crystals is introduced, and its analytical propagation expressions through uniaxial crystals orthogonal to the optical axis are derived. The application of the Wigner distribution function matrix of the electromagnetic beams propagating through uniaxial crystals orthogonal to the optical axis is illustrated with the stochastic electromagnetic beams.
