Abstract

Airy beam has been attracting the attention of current researchers for its unique characteristics such as self-healing property, non-diffractive nature, and self-accelerating beam trajectory. Normally, this special beam is studied based on a bulk optic platform using a spatial light modulator or cylindrical lens. Here, we propose the generation of a fiber optic onedimensional Airy-like beam using a micro-scale cylindrical lens. Experimental measurements demonstrated that the beam profile had a light distribution similar to the Airy function. Furthermore, its intensity demonstrated a curved trajectory, which originates from the self-accelerating nature of the Airy-like beam.
