Wavefunction in Defocusing Plane in TEM Imaging

If a parallel electron beam is normal to a specimen, the wavefunction in the defocusing plane of ±Δf can be given by

       wavefunction in the defocusing plane --------- [4213a]

where,
       ψ(x,y) -- Wavefunction in the specimen plane
       Δf -- Defocus
       (x, y ) -- Coordinates of the specimen plane
       (xi, yi) -- Coordinates of the defocusing plane
       λ -- Wavelength of the electron beam
       wavefunction in the defocusing plane --------------------------------- [4213b]
       wavefunction in the defocusing plane --------------------------------- [4213c]
