Characterization of vector diffraction-free beams

Optics 2016-01-26 v1

Abstract

It is observed that a constant unit vector denoted by I\mathbf I is needed to characterize a complete orthonormal set of vector diffraction-free beams. The previously found diffraction-free beams are shown to be included as special cases. The I\mathbf I-dependence of the longitudinal component of diffraction-free beams is also discussed.
