+Title: Fresnel Diffraction for Coherent and Monochromatic
+        Wave Fields
+
+Fresnel Diffraction describes the behavior of a wave field as it
+moves through free space or interacts with an object under the
+small-angle approximation. It is particularly useful for near
+field diffraction.
+
+The following algorithm is an adaptation of the 'transfer function'
+based approach contained in the reference. It is critically
+sampled when:
+pixel_size = wavelength * prop_dist / side_length
+
+Or equivalently:
+pixel_size = sqrt(wavelength * prop_dist / pixel_num)
+
+Under and oversampling occur when the left-hand side is less
+than or greater than the right-hand side, respectively.
+
+This code is adapted and modified from:
+Computational Fourier Optics: A MATLAB Tutorial by David Voelz
