Description
Summary:We present a novel optical configuration that allows for generation of ultra-high speed dynamic Bessel beams and dynamic bottle beams. The method is based on combination of the axisymmetric acousto-optic device and the spatial filtering enabled by a mask or a digital micromirror device. Selected features of dynamic non-diffracting beams and bottle beams are investigated using time-resolved approach with stroboscopic pulsed illumination, including spatial intensity distribution, spatial modulation factors, MHz-range temporal modulation, and scalability. The numerical simulations based on Fourier optics as well as experimental realizations are demonstrated.
