Abstract

The nonlinear propagation of femtosecond Airy laser filaments in water is numerically investigated in this paper. We mainly consider the influences of confinement parameter, pulse duration and beam waist on the deposited energy of filaments. The values of confinement parameter are found to have a significant impact on the temporal and spatial dynamics of the pulse. The characteristics of energy deposition also differ widely for Airy beams with different confinement parameters. The less the confinement parameter, the more energy deposited by filamentation. However, the relative deposited energy evolves relatively small changes under different confinement parameters. We also found the longer pulse duration and longer beam waist are beneficial to the total deposited energy increase.
