Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of applied optics, and in particular relates to a radially polarized light generating device used in optical tweezers technology particle capture, super-resolution microscopy, laser processing, and optical information storage. Background technique [0002] Axisymmetrically polarized beam is a spatially variable linearly polarized beam with axisymmetric characteristics. The local polarization state is still linearly polarized, but the polarization orientation at different positions on the cross section is changed. Based on the different distributions of polarization states, various forms of axisymmetrically polarized beams have been proposed, such as radially polarized light, angularly polarized light, and helically polarized light. Radial polarized light is a typical polarization state of axisymmetric polarization. It has an axisymmetric polarization structure and a hollow ring mode distribution. When a lens with a hi...
