Polarization properties of linearly polarized parabolic scaling Bessel beams

• We investigated the polarization properties of modified parabolic scaling Bessel beams with linear polarization.
• We studied the evolution of transverse intensity profiles for the three components of these beams.
• The intensity patterns of the cross polarization and longitudinal components can reflect the sign of the topological charge.

The intensity profiles for the dominant polarization, cross polarization, and longitudinal components of modified parabolic scaling Bessel beams with linear polarization are investigated theoretically. The transverse intensity distributions of the three electric components are intimately connected to the topological charge. In particular, the intensity patterns of the cross polarization and longitudinal components near the apodization plane reflect the sign of the topological charge.
