Bessel beams generated with non-ideal axicons are affected by aberrations. We introduce a method to retrieve the complex amplitude of a Bessel beam from intensity measurements alone, and then use this information to correct the wavefront and intensity profile using a deformable mirror.

In this Letter, we present the characterization of the effect of atmospheric turbulence on frozen waves (FWs) using holographic techniques. Frozen waves are diffraction-resistant optical beams obtained by superposing co-propagating Bessel beams, achieving efficient shaping of their shape. Based on this, we developed a holographic optical system for the generation and characterization of frozen waves under conditions of turbulence effects.

Structured light beams, in particular, those carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM), have gained a lot of attention due to their potential for enlarging the transmission capabilities of communication systems. However, the use of OAM-carrying light in communications faces two major problems, namely distortions introduced during propagation in disordered media, such as the atmosphere or optical fibers, and the large divergence that high-order OAM modes experience. While the use of nonorthogonal modes may offer a way to circumvent the divergence of high-order OAM fields, artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have shown promise for solving the mode-distortion issue.

Underwater acoustic propagation has emerged as a focal point of research across various fields due to its low attenuation characteristics, particularly in applications such as underwater detection, monitoring, and imaging. Based on the orbital angular momentum (OAM) degree of freedom, an intriguing technique known as the acoustic vortex (AV) based communication is developed to enhance underwater communication capacity. At present, precise directional information transfer and concentration of signal intensity are crucial to guarantee the performance of underwater AV communication.

Bessel beams (BBs) are propagation-invariant optical fields that retain a narrow central intensity profile over longer propagation lengths than Gaussian beams (GBs). Due to this property, they have been adopted in fluorescence-based light sheet microscopy (LSM) to obtain 2D longitudinally-extended light-sheets. Yet, current approaches for generating BB lattices in LSM focus on regular excitation patterns and involve complex and bulky optics, limiting integration capability and versatility.
