16. Apodization (literally means "to remove the feet") is the name given to any process by which the aperture function is altered. Apodization is usually employed to reduce the intensity of the secondary diffraction maxima. See for example: G. R. Fowles, Introduction to Modern Optics (Dover, New York, 1989), p. 138.
