An asymmetric envelope function for modulating the spectrum of circular Airy beam is proposed in this work. The propagation properties of the modified circular Airy beam are investigated in both theory and experiment. The three parameters of the asymmetric hyperbolic secant function can be used to adjust the ratio of the high frequency components to the low frequency components in Fourier space, and thus tuning the propagation properties of this modified circular Airy beam. The results demonstrate that the focal position is affected mainly by the high frequency components. The maximum focal intensity will not be enhanced continuously by increasing the proportion of the high frequency components. It depends on the ratio of the high frequency components to the low frequency components when the center frequency is determined. Therefore, using an asymmetric envelope in Fourier space is much more reasonable than using the high pass filtering or symmetric Gaussian envelope. The FWHM decreases significantly with the increase of center frequency. When the parameters are chosen appropriately, the size of focal spot will be reduced significantly, the maximum focal intensity, especially the abruptly autofocusing property will be enhanced greatly and the focal position can remain almost the same as the focal position of the common circular Airy beam. The maximum focal intensity of the proposed beam is 3.4 times that of the common circular Airy beam and the abruptly autofocusing property of the proposed beam is much better than that of the beam using the symmetric Gaussian envelope. The phase-only encoding method in Fourier space is used to generate the proposed beam in experiment. The experimental results are in reasonable agreement with the simulation results. It indicates that the modified beam can be generated conveniently by using the same method as that used to generate the common circular Airy beam.
