Generation of surface optical vortices by evanescent Bessel beams
We present that a set of high order Bessel beams 0 when internally reflected at a dielectric/vacuum interface can create distinct evanescent light modes in each of which the intensity distribution is restricted to a sub-wavelength region near the interface outside the dielectric. We believe that this could really facilitate lateral optical manipulation of nano-particles and neutral atoms alon...
متن کاملBessel-like optical beams with arbitrary trajectories.
A method is proposed for generating Bessel-like optical beams with arbitrary trajectories in free space. The method involves phase-modulating an optical wavefront so that conical bundles of rays are formed whose apexes write a continuous focal curve with pre-specified shape. These ray cones have circular bases on the input plane; thus their interference results in a Bessel-like transverse field...
متن کاملA class of partially coherent beams carrying optical vortices.
A new class of partially coherent beams with a separable phase, which carry optical vortices, is introduced. It is shown that any member of the class can be represented as an incoherent superposition of fully coherent Laguerre-Gauss modes of arbitrary order, with the same azimuthal mode index. The free-space propagation properties of such partially coherent beams are studied analytically, and t...
متن کاملA Tale of Two Beams: Gaussian Beams and Bessel Beams
An overview is given of two types of focused beams, Gaussian beams and Bessel beams. First I describe some of the basic properties of Gaussian beams in homogeneous media which stay collimated over a certain distance range after which they diverge. Bessel beams are then described which are among a class of solutions to the wave equation that are diffraction-free and do not diverge when they prop...
متن کاملAddressing atoms in optical lattices with Bessel beams.
A method of synthesizing localized optical fields with zeros on a periodic lattice is analyzed. The applicability to addressing atoms trapped in optical lattices with low cross talk is discussed.
