Research output: Contribution to JournalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

The phase behavior of Airy beams is studied, and their Gouy phase is defined. Analytic expressions for the idealized, infinite-energy type beam are derived. They are shown to be excellent approximations for finite-energy beams generated under typical experimental conditions. © 2011 Optical Society of America.
