Abstract
Abstract The non-diffractive vector Bessel beams of an arbitrary order are examined as both the solution to the vector Helmholtz wave equation and the superposition of vector components of the angular spectrum. The transverse and longitudinal intensity components of the vector Bessel beams are analysed for the radial, azimuthal, circular and linear polarizations. The radially and azimuthally polarized beams are assumed to be formed by the axicon polarizers used with the initially unpolarized or linearly polarized light. Conditions in which the linearly polarized Bessel beams can be approximated by the scalar solutions to the wave equation are also discussed.
