Abstract
We investigate the formation of single and multiple optical bottle beams on the optical axis using a diffractive axicon with amplitude or phase apodization. The proposed approach allows one to control the location and the contrast of the boundaries of the generated dark intensity regions on the optical axis. Experimental results obtained using a spatial light modulator are in good agreement with numerically obtained ones. We successfully used the designed and experimentally formed set of three optical bottle beams for trapping light-absorbing agglomerations of carbon nanoparticles in air under the action of photophoretic forces. This confirms the efficiency of the proposed approach for optical manipulation applications.
