Description

The method that a variety of high power post vector light beams are produced based on a helicon sheet
Technical field
The present invention relates to spatial polarization beam shaping technical field, and in particular to one kind is produced many based on a helicon sheet High power line light beam is converted into high power post vector polarised light by the method for planting high power post vector light beam, this method Beam, such as:Radial polarisation light, angularly polarized light, post vector light beam, high-order post vector light beam and the vortex of phase variable Light beam etc..
Background technology
Post vector polarised light is a kind of special vector polarised light, its spatial polarization state skewness, but on optical axis With certain symmetrical or similitude.Cylindrical polarized beam belongs to one kind of post vector polarised light, including radial polarisation light, it is angular to Polarised light etc., because its polarization and phase are axisymmetricly distributed on beam cross-section and with unique optical characteristics and answer With.In addition, the column symmetry light beam of phase-adjustable such as radial polarisation vortex beams, with column symmetry or similar high-order radial polarisation Light etc., because of its special spatial polarization and phase distribution, also there is many special optical characteristics and application.Vortex beams are that have The each photon carried in the light beam of scroll phase distribution, its expression formula in phase factor exp (il θ), light beam is carried's Orbital angular momentum, wherein l are referred to as topological charge, with it is hollow the characteristics of, it is micro- in optics due to its special space phase distribution The field such as manipulation, biomedicine, information transfer plays a significant role.By taking radial polarisation light as an example.Radial polarisation light has perfection Axial symmetry distribution, have dramatically different characteristic compared with linearly polarized light and circularly polarized light.For example radial polarisation light has edge The symmetrical Electric Field Distribution of optical axis and hollow circular ring type beam arrangement;Radial polarisation light and angularly polarized light are all that polarization is intrinsic State, when being propagated in the tangential crystal of C, will not occur crosstalk;Radial polarisation light can produce super when high numerical aperture lens are focused on The more minimum focus of diffraction limit, the focus point than linearly polarized light and circularly polarized light is much smaller, and the longitudinal direction electricity of focus area Field becomes very strong.So that it is in traction, capture and accelerates metallic, metal is cut, optical storage density and raising is improved There is advantage in terms of longitudinal frame.
Post vector polarised light and vortex beams have unique optical characteristics, and application potential is huge.It is inclined because producing post vector Shake light and vortex beams it is more difficult, domestic at present to use theoretical analysis method research mostly, development experimental study is also few, causes light Characteristic research is learned not enough, using limited.
Foreign countries, the production method research of radial polarisation light is relatively more, is broadly divided into two classes:I.e. intracavitary method (active) and External reforming method (the outer method of chamber, passive type).Intracavitary method refers to directly produce radial polarisation light in laser, it is necessary to laser Structure adjust accordingly, be related to gain media, core concept is radial polarisation light and other polarised lights in control oscillator Loss so that the loss of other polarization states is larger, it is impossible to vibration is realized, so that only radial polarisation light output.Current intracavitary method Produce radial polarisation light substantially promising following several:Radial polarisation light is produced using crystal axis birefringence, utilize crystal dichroic Property produce radial polarisation light, utilize crystal Brewster angle characteristic produce radial polarisation light and using interferometric method produce radial polarisation Light.But it is not necessarily all feasible to place special device in intracavitary, because it is one to carry out improvement and design to existing laser Sufficiently complex technology, and its limited space.
External reforming method refers to outside laser, the method synthesized again by certain phase element or using decomposition, The polarised light of space uniform is converted into radial polarisation light, due to without needing to transform laser, thus with very big Design flexibility, but utilization ratio is more relatively low.Conventional External reforming method has:Radial polarisation is produced with cross polarization modus operandi Light, produced with piecemeal wave plate or gyrotropi crystal approximate radial polarisation light, utilization space optical modulator produce radial polarisation light with Radial polarisation light etc. is produced using optical fiber.
Although cross polarization modus operandi can produce the higher radial polarisation light of purity, its to test light path stability Require higher with precision controlling, operational control is complicated;The post vector polarised light species that conventional piecemeal wave plate or gyrotropi crystal are produced Single, purity is relatively low, and application effect is limited;The radial polarisation light energy that utilization space optical modulator or optical fiber are produced compared with It is small, using limited.
