Abstract

In this paper, we consider the propagation of an anomalous hollow beam passing through the first-order ABCD optical system. Based on the generalized diffraction integrals, a general propagating formula of anomalous hollow beam is derived. Based on the derived formula, the propagation properties of anomalous hollow beam through the misaligned optical system are numerically illustrated. From the numerical results we can get that when an anomalous hollow beam propagates through a misaligned optical system, the shape of the output beam changes as the propagation distance increases, and the center of the output beam is deviated from the optical axis. The position of the output beam is effected by the misaligned parameters, and can be controlled by adjusting them. This method provides a convenient tool for studying the propagation and transformation of an anomalous hollow beam through the misaligned optical system.
