Propagation-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 کاملWhite-light generation using spatially-structured beams of femtosecond radiation.
We studied white-light generation in water using spatially- structured beams of femtosecond radiation. By changing the transverse spatial phase of an initial Gaussian beam with a 1D spatial light modulator to that of an Hermite-Gaussian (HGn,m) mode, we were able to generate beams exhibiting phase discontinuities and steeper intensity gradients. When the spatial phase of an initial Gaussian bea...
متن کاملGeneration of optical bottle beams by incoherent white-light vortices.
We generate experimentally optical bottle beams from incoherent double-charge white-light vortices, and show that their parameters can be efficiently controlled by varying the beam focusing conditions.
متن کاملEvidence of X-Shaped Propagation-Invariant Localized Light Waves
Ten years ago Durnin, Miceli, and Eberly [1] reported on the startling first experimental investigation of the socalled nondiffracting Bessel beam, which was formed from a cw laser light by an annular slit and a collimating lens. The beam was found to maintain its sharply peaked radial profile over large distances outclassing the Rayleigh range. During the decade monochromatic Bessel beams have...
متن کاملExtended scale-invariant pattern recognition with white-light illumination.
A previous method of obtaining scale-invariance detection with white-light illumination has been improved on. We were able to detect different scaled versions of the target up to a magnification factor equal to 2. We simultaneously detected several versions in the same scene, because each scale factor is codified in a different wavelength. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed technique...
