Non-paraxial Airy beams
We report the propagation dynamics of Airy light beams under non-paraxial conditions. It is studied using the general approach which deals with Fourier expansion of the beam. We show the transformation of the beam from the Airy form as the paraxiality parameter decreases. The role of evanescent waves in non-paraxial regime is discussed. c © 2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 260.0260, ...
متن کاملExperimental observation of self-accelerating beams in quadratic nonlinear media.
We present the experimental observation of 1D and 2D self-accelerating nonlinear beams in quadratic media, which are also the first nonlinear self-accelerating beams in any symmetric nonlinearity. Notably, we show that the intensity peaks of the first and second harmonics are asynchronous with respect to one another, but the coupled harmonics exhibit joint acceleration within the nonlinear medi...
متن کاملObservation of accelerating Airy beams.
We report the first observation of Airy optical beams. This intriguing class of wave packets, initially predicted by Berry and Balazs in 1979, has been realized in both one- and two-dimensional configurations. As demonstrated in our experiments, these Airy beams can exhibit unusual features such as the ability to remain diffraction-free over long distances while they tend to freely accelerate d...
متن کاملObservation of accelerating parabolic beams.
We report the first observation of accelerating parabolic beams. These accelerating parabolic beams are similar to the Airy beams because they exhibit the unusual ability to remain diffraction-free while having a quadratic transverse shift during propagation. The amplitude and phase masks required to generate these beams are encoded onto a single liquid crystal display. Experimental results agr...
متن کاملEvanescent field of vectorial highly non-paraxial beams.
In terms of the Fourier spectrum, a simple but general analytical expression is given for the evanescent field associated to a certain kind of non-paraxial exact solutions of the Maxwell equations. This expression enables one to compare the relative weight of the evanescent wave with regard to the propagating field. In addition, in those cases in which the evanescent term is significant, the ma...
