Accelerating Airy Beams Along Tunable Propagation Trajectories

We present a simple and highly efficient approach to directly generate tunable Airy beams, which can propagate along arbitrary monotonic curves. Such beams are generated by modulating a Gaussian beam imposed by tunable phase-only patterns. The analytic relationship between phase and propagation traj...
