Not sure if your plot is near field or far field. Here is my test:

Above is the farfield, and below is the near field:

Please check if the Gaussian beam injection plane is large eough.

Since NA=0.1 is relatively small, you can use scalar Gaussian beam. Of course you can also use NA thin lens beam which is more accurate.
