Radially and azimuthally polarized nonparaxial Bessel beams made simple.
We present a method for the realization of radially and azimuthally polarized nonparaxial Bessel beams in a rigorous but simple manner. This result is achieved by using the concept of Hertz vector potential to generate exact vector solutions of Maxwell's equations from scalar Bessel beams. The scalar part of the Hertz potential is built by analogy with the paraxial case as a linear combination ...
متن کاملFocus shaping of the radially polarized Bessel–Gauss beam with a sine-azimuthal variation wavefront
Focusing properties of the radially polarized Bessel–Gauss beam with a sine-azimuthal variation wavefront was investigated by the vector diffraction theory. The wavefront distribution is the sine function of the azimuthal angle with one phase parameter that indicates the phase change frequency. Results show that the focal pattern can be altered by the phase parameter, and many novel focal patte...
متن کاملEntangled Bessel-Gaussian beams.
Orbital angular momentum (OAM) entanglement is investigated in the Bessel-Gaussian (BG) basis. Having a readily adjustable radial scale, BG modes provide an alternative basis for OAM entanglement over Laguerre-Gaussian modes. We show that the OAM bandwidth in terms of BG modes can be increased by selection of particular radial wavevectors and leads to a flattening of the spectrum, which allows ...
متن کاملPropagation-invariant beams with quantum pendulum spectra: from Bessel beams to Gaussian beam-beams.
We describe a new class of propagation-invariant light beams with Fourier transform given by an eigenfunction of the quantum mechanical pendulum. These beams, whose spectra (restricted to a circle) are doubly periodic Mathieu functions in azimuth, depend on a field strength parameter. When the parameter is zero, pendulum beams are Bessel beams, and as the parameter approaches infinity, they res...
متن کاملPhase anomalies in Bessel-Gauss beams.
Bessel-Gauss beams are known as non-diffracting beams. They can be obtained by focusing an annularly shaped collimated laser beam. Here, we report for the first time on the direct measurement of the phase evolution of such beams by relying on longitudinal-differential interferometry. We found that the characteristics of Bessel-Gauss beams cause a continuously increasing phase anomaly in the spa...
