Figures & Tables(7)
Fig. 1. Shaping nondiffracting structured caustic beams. (a) Astroid; (b) deltoid; (c) cardioid; (d) pentagram caustics. (a1)–(d1) Caustic lines; (a2)–(d2) phase distributions; (a3)–(d3) ray pictures; (a4)–(d4) simulated transverse intensities of the astroid, deltoid, cardioid, and pentagram caustics, respectively.
Fig. 2. Theoretical simulations of astroid caustic with different q. (a) q = 0; (b) q = 5; (c) q = 10; (d) q = 15.
Fig. 4. Experimental recorded graphs of nondiffracting caustic beams with the same parameters as that in Fig.
