چکیده
In a simple picture, a Bessel beam is viewed as a transverse standing wave formed in the interference region between incoming and outgoing conical waves. Based on this interpretation we propose an optical resonator that supports modes that are approximations to Bessel-Gauss beams. The Fox-Li algorithm in two transverse dimensions is applied to confirm the conlcusion.

Bessel–Gauss output beam from a diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser
We demonstrate a simple and compact laser source that directly produces a Bessel–Gauss beam. The laser resonator consists of a diode-end-pumped Nd:YAG crystal, a planar mirror, and a diffractive mirror designed to phase-conjugate only the lowest-order Bessel–Gauss beam. 2004 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملGeneration of highly confined optical bottle beams by exploiting the photonic nanojet effect
We report on the generation of photonic nanojets, which resemble optical bottle beams. They are realized by manipulating the illumination of dielectric microspheres. As illumination we use the outer region of deliberately truncated Bessel-Gauss beam or a focused Gaussian beam with intentionally induced spherical aberrations. For the Bessel-Gauss beam possessing a single side lobe only, the nano...
متن کاملGeneration of J0-Bessel-Gauss beam by a heterogeneous refractive index map.
In this paper, we present the theoretical studies of a refractive index map to implement a Gauss to a J(0)-Bessel-Gauss convertor. We theoretically demonstrate the viability of a device that could be fabricated on a Si/Si(1-y)O(y)/Si(1-x-y)Ge(x)C(y) platform or by photo-refractive media. The proposed device is 200 μm in length and 25 μm in width, and its refractive index varies in controllable ...
متن کاملCircular beams.
A very general beam solution of the paraxial wave equation in circular cylindrical coordinates is presented. We call such a field a circular beam (CiB). The complex amplitude of the CiB is described by either the Whittaker functions or the confluent hypergeometric functions and is characterized by three parameters that are complex in the most general situation. The propagation through complex A...
متن کاملNormalization of optical Weber waves and Weber-Gauss beams.
The normalization of energy divergent Weber waves and finite energy Weber-Gauss beams is reported. The well-known Bessel and Mathieu waves are used to derive the integral relations between circular, elliptic, and parabolic waves and to present the Bessel and Mathieu wave decomposition of the Weber waves. The efficiency to approximate a Weber-Gauss beam as a finite superposition of Bessel-Gauss ...
