Multiple filamentation of circularly polarized beams.

چکیده
We derive a new system of equations that describes the propagation of circularly polarized laser beams in a Kerr medium. Analysis and simulations of this system show that multiple filamentation is suppressed for circularly polarized beams.

Vectorial Effects and Multiple Filamentation in Self-Focusing of Laser Beams
Intense lasers have applications in medicine (e.g., laser surgery), communications, remote sensing of the atmosphere, and more. When an intense laser beam propagates in a Kerr medium, such as air, water, or glass, the beam can become a long and very narrow filament as a result of its nonlinear interaction with the medium, a phenomenon called self-focusing. Laser experiments since the 1960’s sho...
متن کاملSelf-focusing of circularly polarized beams.
We present a systematic study of propagation of circularly polarized beams in a Kerr medium. In contrast to previous studies, vectorial effects (i.e., coupling to the axial component of the electric field and the grad-div term) and nonparaxiality are not neglected in the derivation. This leads to a system of equations that takes into account nonparaxiality, vectorial effects, and coupling to th...
متن کاملCircularly Polarized Circular Slot Antenna Array Using Sequentially Rotated Feed Network
This paper presents the design, simulation, and measurement of two low-cost broadband circularly polarized (CP) printed antennas: a single element and an array at C band. The proposed single element antenna is excited by an L-shaped strip with a tapered end, located along the circular-slot diagonal line in the back plane. From the array experimental results, the 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth can r...
