| Abstract | |
In this work, we present the theoretical and experimental study of the propagation of Airy beams when passing through two convex lenses with different focal distances. The theoretical analysis is presented from a matrix optical model for an Airy beam. The experimental results are obtained in a holographic setup for experimental generation of Airy beams based on the holographic reconstruction system of computer generated holograms (CGH) implemented electronically in a spatial light modulator (SLM) and a 4f Fourier transformation system. These are in agreement with the theoretical prediction. The novelty of this work went to show the evolution of the Airy beam propagation for different convex lenses in a 4f system and its dependence on focal distances. These are important for the control and manipulation of Airy beams; and, they show new possibilities of applications of the Airy beams in optical tweezers, optical communications and optical guidance.
