Radially polarized Bessel-Gauss beams: decentered Gaussian beam analysis and experimental verification

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We derive solutions for radially polarized Bessel-Gauss beams in free-space by superimposing decentered Gaussian beams with differing polarization states. We numerically show that the analytical result is applicable even for large semi-aperture angles, and we experimentally confirm the analytical expression by employing a fiber-based mode-converter.
