Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vector light field manipulation technology, and in particular to a method for simultaneously generating skyrmions and Möbius strip topological states. Background Technology

[0002] Skyrmions originated from a topologically protected theoretical model proposed by British physicist Skyrme in 1962. This model was initially used to describe the stability of hadrons in high-energy physics, but researchers later named vector field structures with the same topological configuration skyrmions. Now, skyrmions are widely used in condensed matter magnetic materials. Their spins are arranged in vortex or ring patterns, exhibiting nontrivial topological properties and topological robustness, making them considered information carriers for next-generation magnetic storage and logic devices. The stability and low energy consumption of skyrmions have attracted considerable attention; they have become a spin structure at the micro- and nanoscale and are widely considered an ideal information storage unit in non-transferable spin storage devices. In recent years, skyrmions have attracted significant research attention, and this special topological state has been realized in various systems, including Bose-Einstein condensates, quantum Hall systems, twisted graphene, ferroelectric nanocomposites, and polarized exciton superfluids. These nontrivial topologies have recently been extended to the field of optics, leading to rapid progress in the research of emerging optical skyrmions. In 2018, S. Tsesses et al. generated skyrmion lattices by controlling the interference of surface plasmons on metal surfaces. In 2019, Du Luping et al. constructed skyrmions with subwavelength scale characteristics based on the spin angular momentum of evanescent vortex fields. In 2020, Sijia Gao et al. constructed skyrmions based on the Stokes parameters of vector beams propagating in free space, with their skyrmion number simply related to the topological properties of the beam. In 2022, Changxu Liu et al. first observed disorder-induced topological state transitions in the skyrmion family and discovered the robustness of the topological structure of optical skyrmions to scattering by continuously varying random media. The development of optical skyrmions has significant application potential in communication, light-matter interaction, high-resolution imaging, and quantum technology.

[0003] A Möbius strip is a special three-dimensional topological structure with only one surface and one edge, making its surface unorientable. Möbius topology plays an important role in multiple disciplines. In 2003, Sergej O. Demokritov et al. discovered a symmetry-breaking Möbius soliton in the mode spectrum of a spin-wave soliton in a nonlinear active ring composed of magnetic ferrite thin films; it requires two rotations around the ring to satisfy the initial phase condition. In 2005, Claire Castro et al. realized aromatic cycloalkenes with a Möbius structure in aromatic compounds, forming a unique aromatic mode. In 2015, Bauer et al. experimentally observed an optical Möbius strip. They tightly focused a Poincaré beam and traced a polarization ellipse around point C on the focal plane. Due to the strong longitudinal component of the electric field generated by focusing, the major axis of the polarization ellipse underwent a distortion deviating from the focal plane in three-dimensional space, forming a Möbius strip. In 2023, Jiawei Wang and colleagues successfully observed and controlled the Berry phase in an optical Möbius strip microcavity, providing new possibilities for applications such as all-optical data processing, quantum mechanics and its simulation, sensing, and computing. Skyrmions and Möbius strips are two topological structures with unique properties in the field of optics. Currently, only the two topological states are studied separately, and there are no reports of the simultaneous existence of the two topological states. Summary of the Invention

Determine the existence of a Möbius strip based on the number of twists of the focal field polarization elliptical strip corresponding to the difference in the topological charge of the orbital angular momentum generated by the left-hand and right-hand circular polarization components in the focal field z-component.

[0008] Simultaneously, based on the Stokes parameter in the focal field, a skyrmion topological state is constructed, and a Möbius strip is constructed using the arbitrary axis of the three-dimensional polarization ellipse in the focal field, thus obtaining that the skyrmion and the Möbius strip coexist in the focal field.

[0009] Preferably, the formula for constructing the incident field based on the desired skyrmion order in step S1 is as follows:

[0010] E = ψ TL L+ψ TR R (1)

[0011] in:

[0012]

[0013] Where R = [e] x -ie y ] T Represents right-handed circularly polarized light, L = [e x ie y ] T This indicates left-handed circularly polarized light. (T) L and T R T represents the topological charge number of the orbital angular momentum carried by the left-handed and right-handed components in the incident field, respectively. L -T R Let x be the skyrmion number, and let x and y be the abscissa and ordinate of the Cartesian coordinate system in the incident field, respectively. The radial distance in the incident field. denoted as azimuth in the incident field, and w represents the beam waist radius.

Compared with traditional vector light fields carrying topological structures, this method realizes the simultaneous generation of skyrmion and Möbius strip structures in vector light fields, and finds the law of topological structure change, clarifying the method of customizing skyrmion and Möbius strip topologies. This provides a new degree of freedom for highly localized light fields and has great application potential in fields such as skyrmion devices, light-matter interaction, optical information processing, data storage, information encryption, and quantum technology.

Detailed Implementation

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 A method for simultaneously generating skyrmions and Möbius strip topological states includes the following steps:

[0037] S1. Using left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light carrying orbital angular momentum as orthogonal basis, construct the incident field according to the desired skyrmion order. The skyrmion order is equal to the difference in topological charge of the orbital angular momentum carried by the left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light. The skyrmion order of the focal field is consistent with the skyrmion order of the incident field.

[0038] S2. Focusing the incident field of the structure using a high numerical aperture objective lens will generate a strong z-component in the focal field, thus transforming the polarization ellipse in the focal field from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, making the formation of a Möbius strip possible. The field distribution E on the focal plane is calculated using Richard Wolf's vector diffraction integral formula. f ;

[0039] S3. During the focusing process, the spin-orbit coupling effect causes the circularly polarized light carrying spin angular momentum to generate a new orbital angular momentum in the z-component of the focal field. The existence of a Möbius strip is determined by the number of twists of the focal field polarization ellipse strip corresponding to the difference in topological charge of the orbital angular momentum generated by the left-hand and right-hand circularly polarized components in the z-component of the focal field. Based on the Stokes parameter in the focal field, a skyrmion topological state is constructed. A Möbius strip is constructed using an arbitrary axis of the three-dimensional polarization ellipse in the focal field, revealing that both the skyrmion and the Möbius strip exist simultaneously in the focal field.

[0040] Furthermore, the formula for constructing the incident field based on the desired skyrmion order in step S1 is as follows:

[0041] E = ψ TL L+ψ TR R (1)

[0042] in:

[0043]

[0044]

[0045] Where R = [e] x -ie y ] T Represents right-handed circularly polarized light, L = [e x ie y ] T This indicates left-handed circularly polarized light. (T) L and T R T represents the topological charge number of the orbital angular momentum carried by the left-handed and right-handed components in the incident field, respectively. L -T R Let x be the skyrmion number, and let x and y be the abscissa and ordinate of the Cartesian coordinate system in the incident field, respectively. The radial distance in the incident field. denoted as azimuth in the incident field, and w represents the beam waist radius.

[0046] Furthermore, the difference in topological charge T between the orbital angular momentum carried by the left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized components in step S1... L -T R The order of the skyrmion topology also affects the number of twists in the focal field Möbius strip. By changing the order T of the skyrmion... L -T R It can control the number of times the Möbius strip twists in the focal field.

[0047] Furthermore, step S3 also includes the following steps:

[0048] S31. The major and minor axes of the three-dimensional polarization ellipse in the focal field can be calculated as follows:

[0049]

[0050] Where α represents the major axis of the ellipse, β is the minor axis of the ellipse, Re(.) represents taking the real part of the part inside the parentheses, and Im(.) represents taking the imaginary part of the part inside the parentheses. Indicates focal field E f .

[0051] S32. In the focal field, take point C as the center and draw a circle with a suitable radius. Draw the major axes of all polarization ellipses on this circle to obtain a polarization ellipse ring.

[0052] S33. Calculate the Stokes parameters of the focal field based on the x and y components of the focal field, and then select an appropriate spot radius in the focal field. Draw the skyrmion topology based on the Stokes vector in this region.

[0053] S34. Affected by the spin-orbit coupling effect during the focusing process, circularly polarized light will change the topological charge of the orbital angular momentum carried by the z component in the focal field. The left-handed circularly polarized component will generate a topological charge of +1, and the right-handed circularly polarized component will generate a topological charge of -1. Coupled with the orbital angular momentum they carry, new topological charge numbers are obtained. The difference in the topological charge numbers generated by the left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized components in the z component of the focal field is the twisting number of the Möbius ring in the focal field, which can be expressed as the twisting number T a =|T L +2-T R |.

[0054] S35. Change the skyrmion order T L -T R , and observe the changes in the skyrmion order and the twisting number of the polarization ellipse annulus in the focal field. When T L -T R is odd, the polarization ellipse annulus forms a Möbius ring. At this time, there are skyrmions with order T L -T R and a Möbius ring with a twisting number of T a =|T L +2-T R | in the focal field. When T L -T R is even, the polarization ellipse annulus with an even number of twists has two surfaces and two edges, that is, the Möbius ring disappears. However, there are still skyrmions with order T L -T R in the focal field.

[0055] Further, in step S3, when T L -T R is odd, select any axis of the polarization ellipse αcost + βsint (-π ≤ t ≤ π), and the Möbius ring still exists. Therefore, the Möbius ring can be flexibly constructed.

[0056] As Figure 1 shown, the customized incident field carrying a specific skyrmion number is focused by an objective lens with a high numerical aperture, and skyrmions and Möbius rings with the expected topology can be obtained in the focal field. The intensity and phase of the focused light field can be calculated using the Richards-Wolf vector diffraction integral formula. Here, taking the generation of a Möbius ring with a skyrmion number of -1 and a twisting number of 1 in the focal field as an example, the specific implementation manner of the technical solution is described, including the following steps:

[0057] Step 1: For a first-order skyrmion and a Möbius strip with a twist number of 1, first determine T. a =1, according to T a =|T L +2-T R |, then T L -T R = -1 or -3; and since the skymin number is -1, we can obtain T L -T R =-1, so let T be here. L =0,T R =1.

[0058] Step 2: Based on the obtained T L and T R Combining formula (1), the incident field can be determined:

[0059]

[0060] The intensity and polarization distribution of the obtained Stokes parametric skyrmion beam are as follows: Figure 2 As shown in (a). Figure 2 (b) gives the topological state of skyrmions based on Stokes parameters, with a skyrmion number of -0.93.

[0061] Step 3: Perform coordinate transformation on the incident field to obtain the expression for the light field behind the lens.

[0062]

[0063] Substituting Richard Wolf's vector integral diffraction formula, we obtain the focal field expression:

[0064]

[0065] Among them, z f =0 is the result of the focal plane. The obtained first-order Bloch-type Stokes parametric skyrmion and the Möbius strip with a torsion order of 1 are as follows: Figure 3 As shown in (a)-3(c), here Figure 3 (a) shows the intensity and polarization distribution of the light field on the focal plane. Figure 3 (b) is the topological state of a skyrmion with a skyrmion number of -0.93. Figure 3 (c) is a Möbius strip formed by the major axis of the polarization ellipse. Without loss of generality, the Stokes parameter has been normalized here.

[0066] from Figure 3 As can be seen in (a), the effective intensity diameter of the focused spot is approximately 1.17λ, indicating that the focused spot is a near-diffraction-limited spot. From Figure 3As can be seen in (b), the topological state of the skyrmion undergoes spatial orientation evolution at a scale smaller than the diffraction limit. Figure 3 (c) simultaneously presents the three-dimensional structure of the Möbius strip and its two-dimensional structure projected onto the xOy plane. The color changes on the Möbius strip represent the changes in the angle between the torus and the focal plane. The number of times the color changes from dark to light indicates the number of twists in the Möbius strip. Here, point C is selected as the reference point. Figure 3 (a) A Möbius strip is formed by the major axes of all polarization ellipses on a circle with a radius of 0.3λ centered at the central circle. In summary, after the incident field carrying a first-order skyrmion is focused by an objective lens with a high numerical aperture, both skyrmion and Möbius strip topological states can be generated in the focal field.

[0067] After generating a focal field containing both a first-order skyrmion and a Möbius strip with a torsion order of 1, more diverse results can be generated using the same method to verify the incident field (T). L ,T R The effect of ) on the order of the skyrmion, and the relationship between the order of the skyrmion and the number of twists of the Möbius strip. Construct (T) L ,T R The incident fields of (0,-2), (0,-3), (0,3) and (-1,-2) are expressed as: E = ψ0L + ψ -2 R, E = ψ0L + ψ -3 R, E=ψ0L+ψ3R and E=ψ -1 L+ψ -2 R. The incident beam waist radius is w = 1. After focusing, a circle with radius 0.3λ centered at point C is selected in the focal field. A ring is formed by the major axes of all polarization ellipses on this circle, and the corresponding skyrmion topological states are plotted. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown in (a)-4(h), Figure 4 (a)-4(d) are respectively (T) L ,T R The polarization elliptical bands of the focal field corresponding to (0,-2), (0,-3), (0,3) and (-1,-2) Figure 4 (e)-4(h) are respectively Figure 4 (a)-4(d) corresponds to the skymin topological state. According to T a =|T L +2-T R The number of twists of the polarization elliptical band can be obtained as T. a =4, 5, 1 and 3, and Figure 4The results (a)-4(c) are consistent; their corresponding skyrmion numbers are 1.99, 2.99, -2.96 and 0.99, respectively. Considering that the finite spot size will introduce a certain skyrmion number error, this result corresponds to the difference T between the topological charge of the orbital angular momentum carried by the left-hand and right-hand circularly polarized components of the incident field. L -T R It should be noted that when the number of twists is even, the Möbius strip disappears, and the ring formed by its major axis of polarization ellipse (or other axes) has two faces and two edges, lacking the topological properties of a Möbius strip. However, when the number of twists is odd, the ring can be started from any axis and moved in any direction, with its endpoint connected to the starting point in the opposite direction. This ring has only one face and one edge, and the Möbius strip exists. Therefore, the order T of the skyrmion can be changed. L -T R Controlling the generation and annihilation of Möbius strips. (Comparison) Figure 4 In (b) and 4(c), when the skyrmion numbers in their incident fields are opposite, the twisting directions of the focal field Möbius strip are also opposite. This demonstrates the high flexibility of this method, allowing for customization of the topological order of the skyrmions and the number of twists in the Möbius strip.

[0068] Figure 5 This section presents four examples of constructing a Möbius strip by selecting different axes within the polarization ellipse. The axis of the polarization ellipse is denoted by αcost + βsint (-π ≤ t ≤ π), where t represents the angle between the selected axis and the major axis of the polarization ellipse. The incident field is expressed as E = ψ0L + ψ1R, with a beam waist radius w = 1. All polarization ellipses within a circle centered at point C with a radius of 0.3λ are selected. The upper right corner shows a schematic diagram of the selected polarization ellipse axes; the straight lines within the ellipse represent the selected axes. Figure 5 (a) is a Möbius strip formed by selecting the major axis α of the polarization ellipse (at which point t=0), and rotating the major axis clockwise around the center of the ellipse, resulting in... Figure 5 (b) shows that the axis at t = 3π / 10 can still form a Möbius strip. When t = π / 2, the minor axis β of the ellipse can be obtained, which is orthogonal to the major axis. A Möbius strip constructed using the minor axis is shown below. Figure 5 (c) Because the minor axis is shorter, the width of its ring is also greatly reduced. Continuing to rotate clockwise yields... Figure 5 (d) At this point, t = 7π / 10, a Möbius strip can still be formed. Then, rotating clockwise returns to the starting position. Figure 5 (a). It can be seen that the Möbius strip is constructed from multiple angles, and any axis of the polarization ellipse can form a Möbius strip.
