It is well known that when a laser is reflected from a rough surface or transmitted through a
diffusive medium, a speckle pattern will be formed at a given observation plane. An …

In this paper we revisit the nondiffracting properties of the cosine beam (CB). Since the CB is
of infinite extension and not physically realizable, we use two apodization pupils to manage …

Hermite‐Gaussian (HG), Laguerre‐Gaussian (LG), and Ince-Gaussian (IG) modes have
been of considerable importance for photonics. They have revealed a unique way to optical …

Using the asymptotic formula of the Hermite polynomials for higher-orders n≫ 1, an elegant
mathematical expression that makes Hermite–Gaussian beams and cosine beams …

We report on a speckle field that is non-Rayleigh, nondiffracting, and an exact solution to the
scalar Helmholtz equation. We have shown that these fields can be directly optimized to a …

Hyperuniform structures possess the ability to confine and drive light, although their
fabrication is extremely challenging. Here we demonstrate that speckle patterns obtained by …

We investigate the capacity of the exact non-Rayleigh nondiffracting (ENRND) speckle field
to reconstruct its statistical properties along the propagation. It is unclear in the literature how …

We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate a method to define non-diffracting beams
with different geometries. Our findings constitute an alternative to current methods for finding …

O Espalhamento de uma luz coerente por um meio desordenado, em geral, gera speckles
exibindo estatísticas Rayleigh. A pesquisa sobre padrões de speckle foi desenvolvida ao …

Speckle fields contain many random dark and bright spots. In traditional speckle interference
measurement technique, the information of the bright areas is fully utilized, and the speckle …
