Abstract
The properties of a linearly polarized cosine-hyperbolic-Gaussian beam (ChGB) propagating in a chiral medium are investigated theoretically by using the Huygens-Fresnel diffraction integral. Beam intensity distribution characteristics in the chiral medium are discussed with numerical examples. The linearly polarized ChGB is found to split into a superposition of left and right circularly polarized Gaussian components, and its intensity pattern exhibits a variable shape depending on the chirality factor and decentered parameter b. The output beam can exhibit a richer intensity pattern compared to the Gaussian beam. The results could be beneficial for the application of ChGB in beam shaping and optical micromanipulation.
