Embodiment
The present invention does not need complicated light path based on the device that birefringent polarizing beam splitter produces vector beam, and required Optical element it is also very simple, 4f space filtering imaging optical path systems are employed, shown in such as Fig. 1 (a), it is only necessary to routine Computed hologram (CGH), birefringent polarizing beam splitter (BBS), two fourier lense (first fourier lense Lens1 With the second fourier lense Lens2) and a filtering apertures (FA), any optics member need not be inserted between CGH and BBS Part.Such as Fig. 1 (b), computed hologram (CGH) is placed on the first fourier lense Lens1 front focal plane P1, birefringent polarizing beam splitter (BBS) it is placed between the first fourier lense Lens1 front focal plane P1 and the first fourier lense Lens1, filtering apertures (FA) It is placed on the first fourier lense Lens1 back focal plane (namely spatial frequency spectrum face) P2.Between filtering apertures and output face Place second fourier lense Lens2.Birefringent polarizing beam splitter (BBS) can be the fierce rib of a wollaston prism or Lip river Mirror or a simple micro- angle beam splitter prism of birefringence.
Birefringent polarizing beam splitter BBS assume be a splitting angle be 2 α birefringence wollaston prism, the prism with The distance between CGH is d.To simplify the analysis, it is assumed that the focal length of two fourier lenses (Lens1 and Lens2) is f.Simultaneously By the way that output face P3 coordinate and input face P1 (namely front focal plane P1) coordinate reversely is eliminated into light field through in two Fu The sign change that the secondary Fourier transform of leaf lens is produced.
As can be seen that due to inserting birefringent polarizing between the first fourier lense Lens1 and CGH from Fig. 1 (a) Beam splitter (BBS), the light field through CGH produces the picture of two mutual dislocations at output face P3, and one is level (along x-axis) line Polarised light, another is vertical (along y-axis) linearly polarized light, and the magnitude of misalignment of two pictures is equal to xα=d tan (α).
Assuming that the complex amplitude transmittance function of the CGH at input face P1 is t (x, y);The incident light for illuminating CGH is line Plane of polarization light, its polarization direction and x-axis are into θ0Angle.In order that the vector beam finally produced is along optical axis, if illumination light Spatial frequency component in the y-direction is kα=2 π sin (α)/λ, λ are illumination light wavelength.Do not consider at the P2 of spatial frequency spectrum face first Filtering apertures FA, now the output light field at output face P3 can be expressed as following Jones vector form:
Wherein, E0For the amplitude of incident light, j is imaginary symbols;C1 and C2 is two constants less than 1, is respectively intended to table Levy efficiency of transmission of the CGH to two orthogonal polarisation states.For the CGH of an isotropic, C1 is generally equal to C2;In such case Under, the polarization direction angle θ of incident light0It could be arranged to 45 degree.If CGH for anisotropic (for example:Adjusted with liquid crystal spatial light Device processed exports CGH), C1 is typically not equal to C2;Adjustment angle θ can now be passed through0Make C1 cosθ0=C2 sinθ0.So, (1) Formula can be reduced to:
Because a random two-dimensional vector beam is decomposed into two orthogonal polarization components, the complex amplitude of the vector beam Distribution can be used to lower Jones vector to represent:
Wherein uxAnd uyFor two respective complex amplitudes of orthogonal polarization components, (ax,ay) andThen be respectively two just Hand over the amplitude and phase of polarized component.Using the polarization imaging characteristic of light path shown in Fig. 1 (b), the vector light of generation can will be intended The complex amplitude u of two orthogonal polarization components of beamxAnd uyProgress is encoded to two of computed hologram (CGH) not after suitably translating With in diffraction direction, and appropriately sized carrier frequency is set, so that its corresponding diffraction is again when with appropriate illumination optical illumination CGH Now as polarization superposition can just be realized in output face.For example, in the coordinate system shown in Fig. 1 (b), can be by uxAnd uyCoding To with x-axis respectively into+45 degree and -45 spend diffraction directions on and make component of its carrier frequency along x-axis be respectively exp (jkαX) and exp(-jkαx);uxAnd uyCoordinate translation amount be respectively+xαWith-xα.Such diffraction light passes through birefringent polarizing beam splitter BBS After filtering apertures FA, the vector beam shown in formula (3) can be just produced on output face P3.
By taking conventional modified off-axis interference-type computed hologram (CGH) as an example, the CGH in the present invention can enter as follows Row coding:
Wherein a0And a1For the constant more than 0.Why computed hologram CGH is so encoded, be because when such a When hologram is put into the input face P1 of light path shown in Fig. 1, the output light field at system output face P3 will have following form:
Formula (6) can be derived by bringing (5) formula into (2) formula.By the visible Section 2 therein of formula (6) just It is exactly required vector beam.
Despite the presence of some unnecessary items in formula (6), but these unnecessary items can be by way of space filtering Eliminate, because the spatial frequency spectrum of the light field shown in formula (6), that is, its light field on the spatial frequency spectrum face P2 of system point Cloth is just proportional to the Fourier transform of formula (6), i.e.,:
Wherein, ξ00=f sin α, F { } represent Fourier transformation computation,WithRespectively complex amplitude uxAnd uySky Between frequency spectrum, δ () represents that Di draws and writes number.Fig. 2 (a) gives the spatial spectral distribution schematic diagram shown in formula (7).And Fig. 2 (b) it is then if spatial spectral distribution when not placing birefringent polarizing beam splitter BBS in light path on the P2 of spatial frequency spectrum face shows It is intended to.From Figure 2 it can be seen that radius R≤f sin α filter is placed in the position that need to be only indicated in Fig. 2 (a) by broken circle All other unwanted item in wave hole footpath FA, formula (6) in addition to Section 2 can be blocked by filtering circular hole FA, and only The Section 2 of vectorial field needed for producing is allowed to pass through.
According to theory analysis above, the method that the present invention produces any vector beam, specific implementation step is:
(a) Jones vector or the COMPLEX AMPLITUDE u of its orthogonal polarization components for the vector beam for intending producing are providedx(x,y) And uy(x,y)。
(b) according to the computed hologram of (5) formula design, wherein parameter setting is kα=2 π sin (α)/λ and xα=d tan(α)。
(c) CGH designed is placed at the input face P1 of system shown in Figure 1, and with a clinoplain light beam or height This light beam irradiates.
(d) the radius R filtering apertures (FA) for being equal to or less than f sin α are placed on the spatial frequency spectrum face P2 of system Section 2 position in correspondence formula (7), thus only allow to should the light of Section 2 can be by filtering apertures (FA).It is logical Required vector light can be obtained by the second fourier lense Lens2 at output face P3 again by crossing the light of filtering apertures (FA) Beam.Second fourier lense Lens2 is used only to produced vector beam being converted into it on computed hologram (CGH) Distribution form;Lens Lens2 can remove in many practical applications.
The feasibility of the present invention is further demonstrated by experiment.In experiment, incident light wave used is wavelength 632.8nm's Laser.The birefringent polarizing beam splitter (BBS) of use is that a splitting angle is about 2 α=0.25 ° calcite wollaston prisms, The BBS to input face P1 distance is d ≈ 25mm.The focal length of two fourier lenses used is f=300mm.Experiment is produced Raw vector beam is vector Laguerre-Gauss (LG) light beam, and its Jones vector is:

In formula, (r, θ) is polar coordinates, i.e.,θ=tan-1(y/x);CnmFor normaliztion constant, ω0For beam Wide parameter,For Laguerre polynomials, m and n are integer.LG light beams are a kind of typical optical eddies, and the optical eddy is opened up Core is flutterred equal to integer m.Then there are two cross-polarization swirl components in vector LG light beams, and two cross-polarization swirl components Topological charge can take different values.
Fig. 3 show the vector beam example tested and produced using the inventive method.The design of the vector beam of this in experiment Parameter is:ux=U1,4(x, y) (correspondence parameter n=1 and m=4) and uy=U2,1(x, y) (correspondence parameter n=2 and m=1).Fig. 3 (a) it is the overall strength distribution of the vector beam obtained at system output face P3.Fig. 3 (b), (c) and (d) are respectively then produced 45 degree of direction polarized components of vector beam, the intensity point of level (x directions) polarized component and vertical (y directions) polarized component Cloth.For the phase distribution characteristic of two orthogonal polarization components further disclosing the vector beam, Fig. 3 (e) and Fig. 3 (f) are also It sets forth two orthogonal polarization components (horizontal polarization and vertical polarization) of the vector beam and doing for a linearly polarized light Relate to pattern.The fringe distribution feature of the interference pattern shows that its horizontal polarisation component is topological kernel m=4 optical eddy, And the optical eddy of its vertical polarisation component then for a topological kernel m=1.The vector beam parameter and design of above-mentioned experiment generation Parameter is consistent.
It should be noted that the birefringent polarizing beam splitter BBS beam splitting angles used in above-mentioned experiment are not optimum value. The splitting angle of the BBS is bigger in theory, and the spatial resolution of the vector beam of generation can be higher.But the size of the splitting angle will be by To the limitation of the computed hologram CGH effective bandwidths employed in experiment.
It is of the invention with it is existing generation vector beam technology compared with, it is more simple and practical.Particularly in the present invention, in meter Other beam splitting and polarization converter device need not be inserted by calculating between hologram CGH and birefringent polarizing beam splitter, therefore is easier Integrated and application, the extinction ratio of two orthogonal polarization components of produced vector beam can be less than 10-5, it is high-quality so as to generate Measure vector beam.
