    Abstract

    The propagation property of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams passing through a diffractive ring-lens (RL) was studied, where the RL was generated by a liquid crystal spatial light modulator (LC-SLM). It was found that the LG beam was transformed into a sharp ring at the focal plane first, and then a Bessel-similar beam was formed behind the focal plane but the beam size was enlarged with the increase of propagation distance. With the help of a group of lenses, the beam was further collimated into a Bessel beam. Finally, the “non-diffractive” and selfreconstruction properties of the generated Bessel beams were experimentally verified.
