[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1The schematic diagram of the structure of the vortex light emitting device provided in the present application, this embodiment provides a vortex light emitting device. The vortex light emitting device includes a back metal sheet 3, an annular metal sheet 1, a plurality of varactor diodes 2 and a non-magnetic medium. The annular metal sheet 1 is arranged above the back metal sheet 3, the varactor diode 2 is arranged between the annular metal sheet 1 and the back metal sheet 3, and is evenly arranged along the annular metal sheet 1, and the non-magnetic medium is filled between the annular metal sheet 1 and the back metal sheet 3 to form a dielectric layer.

[0027] The positive electrode of each of the varactor diodes 2 is connected to the positive electrode of the external voltage source through the annular metal sheet 1, and the negative electrode of each of the varactor diodes 2 is connected to the negative electrode of the external voltage source through the back metal sheet 3, wherein the external voltage source is used to provide a DC bias voltage; when the varactor diode 2 is arranged between the annular metal sheet 1 and the back metal sheet 3, the equivalent relative dielectric constant is a first preset value, and when the equivalent relative dielectric constant is the first preset value, the varactor diode is equivalent to a static grating under the DC bias voltage.

[0028] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection surface of the annular metal sheet 1 completely falls on the back metal sheet 3. Thus, the working stability of the vortex light emitting device is improved.

[0029] According to the inventive concept of the present application, those skilled in the art can set various parameters of the vortex light emitting device according to actual conditions, including but not limited to the radius of the annular metal sheet, the line width of the annular metal sheet, the thickness of the dielectric layer, the relative dielectric constant of the dielectric layer, the thickness of the back metal sheet, the characteristic impedance of the back metal sheet, and the model and quantity of the varactor diode, etc.
