TL;DR: A new family of partially coherent beams carrying optical vortices is introduced that represents an incoherent superposition of fully coherent orthogonal Bessel modes with the same helical wavefront and is notable for its diffraction-free propagation.
Abstract: A new family of partially coherent beams carrying optical vortices is introduced. Any member of this family represents an incoherent superposition of fully coherent orthogonal Bessel modes with the same helical wavefront and is notable for its diffraction-free propagation. It is shown analytically and experimentally that such beams can be approximately generated in the Fourier-transforming optical system with a computer-controlled liquid-crystal spatial light modulator.
