Abstract
A new kind of light beams named the off-axial elliptical Hermite-cosh-Gaussian beams (EHChGBs) is introduced in this paper by use of tensor method. An analytical propagation expression for an off-axial EHChGB passing through an axially nonsymmetrical optical ABCD system is derived by use of vector integration. The derived formula can be easily reduced to the propagation formulas of off-axial elliptical cosh-Gaussian beams and elliptical Hermite-cosh-Gaussian beams. Some numerical simulations are illustrated for the propagation properties of off-axial EHChGBs passing through a free space and a focusing optical system, and further extensions are suggested.
