By playing with the gradient, you can make the colors Transparent on the ends of the cursor. I cannot make this work in Material 3 though...

BasicTextField(
    cursorBrush = Brush.verticalGradient(
        0.00f to Color.Transparent,
        0.35f to Color.Transparent,
        0.35f to Color.Green,
        0.90f to Color.Green,
        0.90f to Color.Transparent,
        1.00f to Color.Transparent
    )
