Generation of finite energy Airyprime beams by Airy transformation

Abstract

In this paper, the lone generation of a new kind of beam named finite energy Airyprime (FEA) beam through the Airy transformation of the coherent superposition of four different elegant Hermite-Gaussian modes is reported for the first time. Analytical expressions of the centroid, the r.m.s beam width, the divergence angle, and the beam propagation factor of the FEA beam are derived in the output plane of Airy transformation, respectively. The effects of the Airy control parameters on the intensity distribution, the centroid, the r.m.s beam width, and the beam propagation factor are examined in detail through numerical examples. Unlike the Airy beam, the FEA beam upon free space propagation will be associated with an additional Airy mode, and the beam pattern of the FEA beams propagating in free space will evolve into a solid beam spot with two tails along two transverse directions, as well as the the intensity of main lobe of the FEA beam decays much slowly during free space propagation. Further, an experiment setup is established to generate the FEA beam via Airy transformation of four mixed elegant Hermite-Gaussian modes. The propagation characteristics such as the intensity distribution, the r.m.s beam width and the beam propagation factor are measured. The experimental results agree well with the theoretical predictions. Our study affords an effective and novel approach to generate the FEA beam, and is beneficial to expand the potential application of the FEA beam.
