Propagation of axially symmetric flattened Gaussian beams
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flattened Gaussian beams are characterized by a waist profile that passes in a continuous way from a nearly flat illuminated region to darkness. The steepness of the transition region is controlled by an integer parameter N representing the order of the beam. Being expressible as a sum of N Laguerre–Gauss modes, a flattened Gaussian beam turns out to be very simple to study as far as propagation is concerned. We investigate the main features of the field distribution pertaining to a flattened Gaussian beam throughout the space and present experimental results relating to the laboratory production of this type of beam. 1996 Optical Society of America

Iwasawa decomposition in first-order optics: universal treatment of shape-invariant propagation for coherent and partially coherent beams
We present the Iwasawa decomposition theorem for the group Sp (2, R) in a form particularly suited to firstorder optics, and we exploit it to develop a uniform description of the shape-invariant propagation of several families of optical beams. Both coherent and partially coherent beams are considered. We analyze the Hermite–Gaussian beam as an example of the fully coherent case. For the partia...
متن کاملAxially Symmetric Vibrations of a Liquid-Filled Poroelastic Thin Cylinder Saturated with Two Immiscible Liquids Surrounded by a Liquid
This paper studies axially symmetric vibrations of a liquid-filled poroelastic thin cylinder saturated with two immiscible liquids of infinite extent that is surrounded by an inviscid elastic liquid. By considering the stress free boundaries, the frequency equation is obtained. Particular case, namely, liquid-filled poroelastic cylinder saturated with single liquid is discussed. When the waven...

متن کاملAnalytic solution of flat-top Gaussian and Laguerre-Gaussian laser field components.
We generalized the nonparaxial field components of Laguerre-Gaussian and flattened Gaussian beams obtained using the angular spectrum method to include symmetric radial and angular expansions and simplified them using an approximate evaluation of the integral equations for the field components. These field components possess series expressions in orders of a natural expansion parameter, which c...

The aim of this paper is to investigate geometrically nonlinear static analysis of axially functionally graded cantilever beam subjected to transversal non follower load. The considered problem is solved by finite element method with total Lagrangian kinematic approach. The material properties of the beam vary along the longitudinal direction according to the power law function. The finite elem...
