چکیده
A very general beam solution of the paraxial wave equation in elliptic cylindrical coordinates is presented. We call such a field an elliptic beam (EB). The complex amplitude of the EB is described by either the generalized Ince functions or the Whittaker-Hill functions and is characterized by four parameters that are complex in the most general situation. The propagation through complex ABCD optical systems and the conditions for square integrability are studied in detail. Special cases of the EB are the standard, elegant, and generalized Ince-Gauss beams, Mathieu-Gauss beams, among others.

Stress Concentration Factor of Single-Layered Graphene Sheets Containing Elliptical Vacancies
In the present study, potential of finite element based molecular structural mechanics (MSM) for evaluating stress concentration factor of single-layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) with elliptical vacancies is successfully addressed. The MSM approach mimics the interatomic forces of the nanostructure by defining an equivalent frame structure containing beam elements. To obtain the mechanical and c...
متن کاملElliptically Symmetric Polarized Beams
We study the free-propagation features of an optical field endowed with a non-uniform polarization pattern with elliptical symmetry. The fields derived in this way are called Elliptically Symmetric Polarized Beams (ESPB for short). Some properties of these fields are analysed. Moreover, it is shown how it is possible to obtain such light beams by applying the results to Bessel-Gauss beams.
متن کاملStable solitons in elliptical photonic lattices.
We introduce the basic properties of solitons in elliptical photonic lattices induced optically by a superposition of Mathieu beams. Owing to the modulation of the intensity along its elliptical rings, these lattices allow novel dynamics of propagation, being possible, for the first time to our knowledge, to propagate solitons in an elliptic motion with varying rotation rate.
متن کاملC W second harmonic generation with elliptical Gaussian beams
We present a study of the efficiency and optimization of cw second harmonic generation by elliptical Gaussian laser beams. Elliptical focusing slightly improves conversion efficiency and reduces crystal damage risk when heavy walk-off is present. Single-pass measurements of the efficiency for doubling 5 15-nm radiation in beta-barium borate (BBO) agree with theory. Thermal effects, caused by ra...
متن کاملElectric field of a 2 D elliptical charge distribution inside a cylindrical conductor ∗
Many applications in beam physics, particularly those concerning transverse beam dynamics, call for an approximate computation of the transverse electric field produced by the charge distribution of the beam, namely the field components in the plane perpendicular to the beam motion. Mathematically, this approximation becomes exact in the limit of an infinitely long charge distribution that is a...
متن کاملSolitary attractors and low-order filamentation in anisotropic self-focusing media
We present a detailed theoretical analysis of the properties and formation of single solitons and higher-order bound dipole pairs in media with anisotropic nonlocal photorefractive material response. The single solitons are elliptical beams, whereas the dipole pairs are formed by a pair of displaced elliptical beams with a p phase shift between their fields. The theory predicts convergence of G...
