We predict that Bessel-like beams of arbitrary integer order can exhibit a tunable self-similar behavior (that take an invariant form under suitable stretching transformations). Specifically, by engineering the amplitude and the phase on the input plane in real space, we show that it is possible to generate higher-order vortex Bessel-like beams with fully controllable radius of the hollow core and maximum intensity during propagation. In addition, using a similar approach, we show that it is also possible to generate zeroth order Bessel-like beams with controllable beam width and maximum intensity. Our numerical results are in excellent agreement with our theoretical predictions.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel interferometric approach to generate arbitrary cylindrical vector beams on the higher order Poincare sphere. Our scheme is implemented by collinear superposition of two orthogonal circular polarizatio ns with opposite topological charges. By modifying the amplitude and phase factors of the two beams, respectively, any desired vector beams on the higher order Poincare sphere with high tunability can be acquired. Our research provides a convenient way to evolve the polarization states in any path on the high order Poincare sphere.
Collapse of a Gaussian beam in self-focusing Kerr media arrested by nonlinear losses may lead to the spontaneous formation of a quasi-stationary nonlinear unbalanced Bessel beam with finite energy, which can propagate without significant distortion o ver tens of diffraction lengths, and without peak intensity attenuation while the beam power is drastically diminishing.
We propose that the full Poincar{e} beam with any polarization geometries can be pictorially described by the hybrid-order Poincar{e} sphere whose eigenstates are defined as a fundamental-mode Gaussian beam and a Laguerre-Gauss beam. A robust and eff icient Sagnac interferometer is established to generate any desired full Poincar{e} beam on the hybrid-order Poincar{e} sphere, via modulating the incident state of polarization. Our research may provide an alternative way for describing the full Poincar{e} beam and an effective method to manipulate the polarization of light.
A promising alternative to Gaussian beams for use in strong field science is Bessel-Gauss (BG or Bessel-like) laser beams as they are easily produced with readily available optics and provide more flexibility of the spot size and working distances. H ere we use BG beams produced with a lens-axicon optical system for higher order harmonic generation (HHG) in a thin gas jet. The finite size of the interaction region allows for scans of the HHG yield along the propagation axis. Further, by measuring the ionization yield in unison with the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) we are able to distinguish regions of maximum ionization from regions of optimum XUV generation. This distinction is of great importance for BG fields as the generation of BG beams with axicons often leads to oscillations of the on-axis intensity, which can be exploited for extended phase matching conditions. We observed such oscillations in the ionization and XUV flux along the propagation axis for the first time. As it is the case for Gaussian modes, the harmonic yield is not maximum at the point of highest ionization. Finally, despite Bessel beams having a hole in the center in the far field, the XUV beam is well collimated making BG modes a great alternative when spatial filtering of the fundamental is desired.

A unified description of the free-space cylindrical vector beams is presented, which is an integral transformation solution to the vector Helmholtz equation and the transversality condition. The amplitude 2-form of the angular spectrum involved in th is solution can be arbitrarily chosen. When one of the two elements is zero, we arrive at either transverse-electric or transverse-magnetic beam mode. In the paraxial condition, this solution not only includes the known $J_1$ Bessel-Gaussian vector beam and the axisymmetric Laguerre-Gaussian vector beam that were obtained by solving the paraxial wave equations, but also predicts two new kinds of vector beam, called the modified-Bessel-Gaussian vector beam.
