Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of light field longitudinal field customization, in particular to a method, device, system and electronic equipment for transmitting information by using longitudinal light field. BACKGROUND

[0002] The prior art method for transmitting information by using light field can only rely on the transverse light field to encode and decode information, and lacks a way of transmitting information by using longitudinal light field, which makes the spatial degrees of freedom of light field not fully utilized and developed.

[0003] In optics, it is generally believed that the polarization direction of light is perpendicular to its propagation direction. However, under tight focusing conditions, the light field will have a polarization component along its propagation direction, i.e. optical longitudinal field, and the longitudinal component of the light field under tight focusing conditions is usually difficult to ignore, and the optical longitudinal field also induces many new effects and phenomena in the process of interaction with matter. However, the generation of the optical longitudinal field is currently passive, i.e. by tight focusing of the incident light field. The disadvantage of this method is that for a given incident light field, its longitudinal field distribution is fixed, so it is difficult to obtain a longitudinal field with an arbitrary distribution, making it impossible to use the optical longitudinal field to transmit any information.

[0065] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0066] Embodiment 1

[0067] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a method for transmitting information using a longitudinal light field provided by embodiment 1 of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the method for transmitting information using a longitudinal light field in the present embodiment includes: Figure 1 ​

[0068] Step 101: determining self-Gaussian lattice information and hidden transverse field lattice information of the information to be transmitted.

[0069] The self-Gaussian lattice information includes the total number of Gaussian points in the self-Gaussian lattice, the horizontal coordinates of the Gaussian points in the self-Gaussian lattice, the vertical coordinates of the Gaussian points in the self-Gaussian lattice, and the beam waist of the self-Gaussian lattice. The hidden transverse field lattice information includes the total number of Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field lattice, the horizontal coordinates of the Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field lattice, the vertical coordinates of the Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field lattice, and the beam waist of the hidden Gaussian lattice.

[0070] Step 102: determining the initial longitudinal light field distribution of the information to be transmitted according to the Gaussian lattice information.

[0071] Specifically, when an arbitrary preset light field distribution (i.e., the initial longitudinal light field distribution) is given first, it is assumed to be a longitudinal field that needs to be customized in experiments, and the preset light field distribution includes amplitude and phase distributions. In principle, the preset light field distribution can be arbitrarily specified, however, in order to encode information in the scheme of customizing the longitudinal field, it is assumed without loss of generality that the given longitudinal field amplitude distribution is a Gaussian lattice, and the phase distribution is uniformly 0 without special instructions, then the expression of the initial longitudinal light field distribution is:

[0072]

[0073] where N1 is the total number of Gaussian points in the self-Gaussian lattice, x n1 is the horizontal coordinate of the nth1 Gaussian point in the self-Gaussian lattice, y n1 is the vertical coordinate of the nth1 Gaussian point in the self-Gaussian lattice, x is the horizontal direction in the entire rectangular coordinate system, y is the vertical direction in the entire rectangular coordinate system, and a0 is the beam waist of the self-Gaussian lattice. Wherein N1, x n1 , y n1 are determined by the plaintext (i.e., the information to be transmitted), and the size of a0 can be adjusted according to the actual situation, such as a0 = 2λ, λ is the wavelength of linearly polarized light, and the wavelengths of other lights converted from linearly polarized light during transmission are all λ, and the origin of the rectangular coordinate system can be set according to the actual situation, such as being set at the center of the self-Gaussian lattice.

[0074] When the information to be transmitted is the Arabic numeral "5", the initial longitudinal light field distribution of the Arabic numeral "5" is as shown in Figure 2 At this time, the value of N1 is 11. For different plaintexts, the number of Gaussian points in the self-Gaussian lattice and the coordinates of each Gaussian point are different.

[0075] ​Step 103: Determine the transverse light field distribution of the information to be transmitted based on the initial longitudinal light field distribution and the hidden transverse field lattice information.

[0076] As an optional implementation, step 103 specifically includes:

[0077] Step 1031: Determine the initial transverse light field distribution of the information to be transmitted based on the initial longitudinal light field distribution.

[0078] Specifically, under tight focusing conditions, the optical field contains longitudinal and transverse components, which are coupled and correlated with each other. Therefore, the longitudinal field cannot exist independently; it must be accompanied by a related transverse field. For the initial longitudinal optical field distribution, its corresponding transverse field component (i.e., the initial transverse optical field distribution) can be obtained by solving the Helmholtz equation. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0079]

[0080] in, This represents the initial transverse light field distribution, where ⊥ denotes the transverse component, and j is the imaginary unit. For horizontal Laplace operators, Indicates the inverse Fourier transform, k z k ⊥ These are the longitudinal and transverse wave vectors of the light field, respectively. Indicates the initial longitudinal light field distribution The spectrum, F represents the Fourier transform.

[0081] Step 1032: Determine the hidden transverse light field distribution of the information to be transmitted based on the hidden transverse field lattice information.

[0082] As an optional implementation, step 1032 specifically includes:

[0083] For any current Gaussian point in the hidden transverse field lattice:

[0084] Calculate the radial coordinates of the current Gaussian point based on its horizontal and vertical coordinates.

[0085] Specifically, the formula for calculating the radial coordinate is:

[0086] Among them, R n2 To hide the radial coordinates of the n2th Gaussian point in the transverse field lattice, x n2 To hide the horizontal coordinates of the n2th Gaussian point in the transverse field lattice, y n2 To hide the vertical coordinates of the n2th Gaussian point in the horizontal field lattice.

[0087] According to the horizontal coordinate and the vertical coordinate of the current Gaussian point, the spin coordinate of the current Gaussian point is calculated.

[0088] Specifically, the calculation formula of the spin coordinate is:

[0089] Wherein, φ n2 is the spin coordinate of the nth2 Gaussian point in the hidden transverse field point array.

[0090] According to the total number of Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field point array, the radial coordinates of all Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field point array, the spin coordinates of all Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field point array, and the beam waist of the Gaussian point array itself, the hidden transverse light field distribution is calculated.

[0091] Specifically, in order to hide the plaintext information, an additional transverse field E Hide is added. Hide The calculation formula of the hidden transverse light field distribution E

[0092]

[0093] Wherein, N2 is the total number of Gaussian points in the hidden transverse field point array (the hidden transverse field point array is a point array composed of additional Gaussian points required for the Gaussian field point array itself), and the sum of N1 and N2 is a fixed value for a certain field. For example, when the information to be transmitted is the Arabic numeral "5", the value of N1 is 11, the value of N2 is 4, N1+N2=15, and 15 is the fixed value at this time. is the spin polarization of the nth2 Gaussian point in the hidden transverse field point array, b0 is the hidden Gaussian point array beam waist, and the size of b0 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, such as b0=2λ, is the horizontal polarization basis vector, is the vertical polarization basis vector. When the information to be transmitted is the Arabic numeral "5", the hidden transverse light field distribution of the Arabic numeral "5" is as shown in Figure 3 .

[0094] Step 1033: According to the initial transverse light field distribution and the hidden transverse light field distribution, the transverse light field distribution is determined.

[0095] Specifically, the calculation formula of the transverse light field distribution is:

[0096]

[0097] Step 104: Based on the initial longitudinal light field distribution and the transverse light field distribution, the target longitudinal light field distribution of the information to be transmitted is determined.

[0098] As an optional implementation, step 104 specifically includes:

[0099] According to the spectrum of the initial longitudinal light field distribution and the spectrum of the transverse light field distribution, a total spectrum is determined.

[0100] Specifically, the initial longitudinal light field distribution is subjected to Fourier transformation to obtain the spectrum of the initial longitudinal light field distribution, the transverse light field distribution is subjected to Fourier transformation to obtain the spectrum of the transverse light field distribution, and the spectrum of the initial longitudinal light field distribution and the spectrum of the transverse light field distribution are added to obtain the total spectrum.

[0101] The numerical aperture of the focusing objective lens in the tight focusing process and a preset free-space wave number are determined.

[0102] According to the numerical aperture and the free-space wave number, a spectral spatial filter function is determined.

[0103] The total spectrum is filtered by using the spectral spatial filter function to obtain a filtered total spectrum.

[0104] The filtered total spectrum is subjected to inverse Fourier transformation to obtain a target longitudinal light field distribution.

[0105] Specifically, in order to ensure that all light field components are propagable, i.e., there is no evanescent wave, the light field needs to be filtered in the spatial frequency domain to ensure that all components satisfy the propagable condition.

[0106] The calculation formula of the target longitudinal light field distribution is:

[0107] wherein, E f is a longitudinal field (i.e., the target longitudinal light field distribution) that satisfies the physical reality, can reasonably exist, and is customized, Θ(k x ,k y is a spectral spatial filter function, k x is a horizontal direction of the spectral coordinate, and k y is a vertical direction of the spectral coordinate.

[0108] When the to-be-transmitted information is the Arabic numeral "5", the target longitudinal light field distribution of the Arabic numeral "5" is as shown in FIG. 5. Figure 4

[0109] Step 105: An incident light field of the to-be-transmitted information is determined based on the target longitudinal light field distribution by using inverse Fourier transformation.

[0110] As an optional implementation, step 105 specifically includes:

[0111] The focal length of the focusing objective lens and the coordinate transformation matrix in the tight focusing process are determined.

[0112] ​By inverse Fourier transform, the incident light field is determined according to the focal length, the coordinate transformation matrix and the spectrum of the target longitudinal light field distribution.

[0113] Specifically, the calculation formula of the incident light field is:

[0114] Wherein, E i is the incident light field, f1 is the focal length of the focusing objective lens, M -1 is the coordinate transformation matrix in the tight focusing process, is the spectrum of E f .

[0115] In fact, the incident light field E i can be expanded into left and right circularly polarized components by left and right circularly polarized basis vectors, that is, and respectively are the complex amplitude distribution of the left circularly polarized component of the incident light field and the complex amplitude distribution of the right circularly polarized component of the incident light field, and respectively are the left circularly polarized basis vector and the right circularly polarized basis vector. The incident light field can be used as ciphertext to generate by the device in embodiment 2.

[0116] Step 106: transmitting the incident light field as ciphertext of the information to be transmitted.

[0133] The diffraction horizontal polarized light is transmitted by the third lens 8 and then is incident on the beam stop 9 at the Fourier plane of the third lens 8, so that filtering is performed, only the two +1 order components (i.e. the first diffraction partial polarized light and the second diffraction partial polarized light) of the diffraction horizontal polarized light are reserved after filtering, and then the left-handed circular polarized light and the right-handed circular polarized light are generated by the adjustment of the quarter-wave plate 10, the left-handed circular polarized light and the right-handed circular polarized light are transmitted by the fourth lens 11 and then are incident on the Ronchi grating 12 at the back focal plane of the fourth lens 11, so that coherent superposition occurs, and the incident light field (the form on the Ronchi grating 12 is an image) of "5" is generated.

[0134] The incident light field (image) of "5" is sequentially incident on the front focal plane of the first focusing objective lens 17 through the first mirror 13, the fifth lens 14, the sixth lens 15 and the second mirror 16, and then is tightly focused by the first focusing objective lens 17 to generate a tightly focused light field. The transverse component and the longitudinal component of the tightly focused light field are collected and collimated by the second focusing objective lens 18, and then are equally intensity split by the second beam splitter 19, so that the transverse component and the longitudinal component of the tightly focused light field are obtained.

[0135] The longitudinal component of the tightly focused light field is converted into the horizontal tightly focused partial light field and the vertical tightly focused partial light field by the radial polarization converter 20, the horizontal tightly focused partial light field is filtered out by the second polarization beam splitter 21, and the seventh lens 22 is used, so that the first light intensity detection camera 23 only receives the vertical tightly focused partial light field, and "5" is obtained.

[0136] In addition to receiving "5" by using the longitudinal component of the tightly focused light field, the transverse component of the tightly focused light field can also be used for receiving, and after the transverse component of the tightly focused light field passes through the polarizer 24 to distinguish the horizontal component and the vertical component in the transverse component of the tightly focused light field, the transverse component of the tightly focused light field passes through the eighth lens 25 and is incident on the second light intensity detection camera 26, so as to realize the receiving of "5".
