Abstract

In this paper, the generation and propagation properties of Bessel-Gaussian (BG) rotationally symmetric power-exponent-phase vortex beam (RSPEPVBs) were demonstrated and discussed. The results showed that the BG-RSPEPVBs can be directly generated based on the spatial light modulator, of which the phase singularities were verified by the interference patterns with the plane wave. It can be found that the intensity distributions of the BG-RSPEPVBs, with different topological charges (TCs) and power orders, were fan-shaped and polycyclic, which possessed the characteristics of BG beams and RSPEPVBs, simultaneously. Thus, the propagation invariance of the BG-RSPEPVBs is better than that of Laguerre-Gaussian RSPEPVBs and RSPEPVBs. Moreover, the focusing spot of the BG-RSPEPVBs would evolve into a bright ring with the same ring radius at the focal plane, which is independent of the TC and more suitable for the applications of optical coupling, optical communication, optical trapping, and so on.
