Creation of a narrow Bessel-like laser beam using a nematic liquid crystal

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present a simple and efficient method to convert a Gaussian laser beam into a Bessel-like beam with a long and narrow focal line by using a nematic liquid crystal with a high third-order nonlinearity.
