Problems solved by technology

For the interferometry, in order to realize the measurement of the topological charge of the vortex beam, the beam must produce obvious interference fringes, which requires the vortex beam to have high coherence, while the coherence of the partially coherent vortex beam is low, so the interference The method also cannot realize the measurement of the topological charge of the partially coherent vortex beam.
Existing technical means are unrealizable in the measurement of topological charges of low-coherence partially coherent vortex beams

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for measuring partially coherent vortex light beam topological charge number. A measured light beam passes through an imaging convex lens and then passes through a beam splitter to be divided into a transmission light beam and a reflection light beam, optical fiber scanning probes of two single-photon counters are respectively arranged at the centers of the transmission light beam and the reflection light beam, the position of a single-photon counter optical fiber probe is fixed, the position of the other single-photon counter optical fiber probe is regulated to perform point-by-point scanning measurement, correlation function values of the two beams on measuring position points are recorded, a spatial distribution image of a fourth-order correlation function is output through computer processing according to fourth-order correlation function relationship of partially coherent laguerre-gaussian beams, and the topological charge number of the beam to be measured is obtained through the number of dark rings on the image. The method is based on the fourth-order correlation function, a novel method for measuring the partially coherent vortex light beam topological charge number is provided, an adopted measuring device is simple in light path and easy to achieve, measuring method is simple, data processing is convenient, and result is reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring the topological charge of a partially coherent vortex beam, in particular to a method for measuring the topological charge of a partially coherent vortex beam based on a fourth-order correlation function, and belongs to the field of partially coherent optical measurement. Background technique [0002] When a beam has an angular phase distribution (twisted phase or helical phase), such a beam has an angular momentum related to the angular phase distribution, called orbital angular momentum. Vortex beams (such as Laguerre-Gaussian beams) have a phase factor , each photon carries The orbital angular momentum of (where l is the topological charge of the vortex beam). The vortex beam has the characteristic of orbital angular momentum, which makes the vortex beam have great application prospects in optical trapping, micromanipulation, information encoding and free space optical communication, etc., which ha...
