Ring-Shaped Bessel Beam

 based on

 Diffractive Axicon

A diffractive axicon converts a laser beam into a ring-shaped Bessel beam. Typically diffractive axicons have no influences on the ring beam's width. The beam width depends on the incident beam and focal lenses. Specifically, the width of the ring-shaped beam at a certain position is equal to half the beam's width when you take the diffractive axicon out from the optical path.

 The main parameters of a diffractive axicon are the base angle α (also referred to as axicon angle) and wavelength λ. Obviously the relationship between base angle α and apex angle (also referred to as cone anlge) θ is

衍射轴锥镜顶角θ(Apex angle or Cone angle)

The half fan angle after a laser beam passes a diffractive axicon is:

激光束经过衍射轴锥镜后变成的环形光的半张角(Half  fan angle)

where n is the refractive index of the material of diffractive axicon. Full fan angle (Ring angle, P2P)is twice the half fan angle, i.e.

The diameter of the ring is:

where L is the working distance.
