Exact nonparaxial beams of the scalar Helmholtz equation
G. Rodriguez-Morales, S. Chavez-Cerda
It is shown that three-dimensional nonparaxial beams are described by the oblate spheroidal exact solutions of the Helmholtz equation. For the first time, their beam behaviour is i…

Bessel-Gauss beam optical resonator
J. Rogel-Salazar, G. H. C. New, S. Chavez-Cerda
In a simple picture, a Bessel beam is viewed as a transverse standing wave formed in the interference region between incoming and outgoing conical waves. Based on this interpretati…
