Abstract
The radial Hilbert transform has been extend to the fractional field, which could be called the fractional radial Hilbert transform (FRHT). Using edge-enhancement characteristics of this transform, we convert a Gaussian light beam into a variety of dark hollow beams (DHBs). Based on the fact that a hard-edged aperture can be expanded approximately as a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, the analytical expression of a Gaussian beam passing through a FRHT system has been derived. As a numerical example, the properties of the DHBs with different fractional orders are illustrated graphically. The calculation results obtained by use of the analytical method and the integral method are also compared.
