Description
Summary:•A view about optimized phase distribution for focusing light is proposed.•There exists a strong correlation among the optimized phase distribution.•The mechanism relies on constructive interference of all phase modulated elements. It is studied in detail that whether the optimized phase distributions obtained from different approaches have relations in focusing light through turbid media. A view is proposed that there exists a strong correlation among the optimized phase distributions from different approaches. The numeric simulations and experiments indicate that the larger the number of segments is, the greater the correlation coefficient of optimized phase distributions from different approaches will be. This study might give an important insight into the essence of focusing light through turbid media by phase modulation.
