Problems solved by technology

However, although the above methods can generate vector beams well, the polarization distribution of the generated vector beams is fixed
In order to change the polarization distribution of the vector beam, it is necessary to add devices such as wave plates in the optical path, which increases the inconvenience of its practical application to a certain extent

Abstract

The invention discloses a three-dimensional vector beam and a generation method and apparatus thereof. According to the provided three-dimensional vector beam, the optical field distribution is similar to the Bessel beam; and the cross section polarization-state distribution of the light beam changes with the change of the transmission distance and changes periodically. Within one spatial period, the polarization state of the beam changes from radial polarization to angular polarization alternately. Generated light beams can have various polarization-state distribution modes; and thus compared with the existing vector beam in single polarization-state distribution, the provided vector beam has the greater application value. According to the generation apparatus for the three-dimensional vector beam, generation of three-dimensional vector beams with different orders can be realized only by changing holographic grating loaded on a liquid crystal space light modulator without the need to adjust any other optical element again, so that the operation becomes simple and convenient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, in particular to a new type of light beam—three-dimensional vector light beam and its generation method and device. Background technique [0002] The polarization state is one of the basic characteristics of the beam. The common polarized light includes linearly polarized light, elliptically polarized light, and circularly polarized light. The distribution of the polarization state of these beams in its cross section is isotropic. Different from these common beams, the polarization state distribution in the beam cross section of the vector beam is anisotropic, and its basic polarization distribution modes include radial polarization distribution, angular polarization distribution, etc. A vector beam with an axisymmetric polarization distribution is an eigensolution of Maxwell's equations in a cylindrical coordinate system, so it can also be called a polarized vortex beam or an axisymmetri...
