Non-diffracting beams do not spread as they propagate. This property is useful in many areas. Here, the theory, generation, properties, and applications of various non-diffracting beams, including the Bessel beam, Mathieu beam, and Airy beam is reviewed. Applications include imaging, micromanipulation, nonlinear optics, and optical transfection. Non-diffracting finite energy Airy beam clearing a chamber of micro-particles.
