Propagation of hyperbolic sinusoidal Gaussian beams in uniaxial crystals orthogonal to the optical axis

Abstract

In this paper, hyperbolic sinusoidal Gaussian(HSG) beam propagates in uniaxial crystal orthogonal to the propagation axis. Received field expression is evaluated analytically based upon Huygens-Fresnel integration. Numerical results are plotted in order to analyze the effect of variations in source beam parameters, crystal refractive index features, and propagation distance. We investigate that beam size and peak intensity of received beam can be managed by adjusting crystal structure. We anticipate that our results will be useful for optical tracking applications. © 2021 Elsevier GmbH
