Abstract
- Abstract: The spectral and spatiotemporal properties of Bessel–Gauss pulsed beams focused by a dispersive aperture lens are studied, where the dispersion of the first, second, and higher orders is taken into consideration. It is shown that the spectral switches take place at the geometrical focal plane, and the dispersion of the first order leads to a shift of the critical position towards the z-axis. The dispersion plays a noticeable role in the spatiotemporal intensity distribution. The dispersion of the first order results in a decrease of the peak intensity, in a shift and a broadening of the pulse form, and the effect becomes more noticeable with increasing waist width. The dispersion of the second order results in a further broadening and a decrease of the peak intensity, and the effect is larger as the thickness of the lens increases. However, the dispersion of the higher order plays a relatively minor role. The results are illustrated by numerical examples and interpreted physically. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
