Description

Method and system for measuring size, positive and negative of topological charge of partially coherent vortex light beam
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of optical measurement, in particular to a method and a system for measuring the size, the positive and the negative of the topological charge number of a partially coherent vortex light beam.
Background

Wherein l is the topological charge number. The vortex beam has great application prospect in the aspects of laser particle capture, micromanipulation, information coding and optical information transmission. Therefore, measurement of the topological charge of the vortex beam is a very important task, which has unique advantages in laser processing, optical tweezers, atomic cooling and the like.
Singularities are points in the light field where certain parameters cannot be defined. Under the condition of complete coherence, the central light intensity of the vortex light beam is zero, the phase changes gradually in a spiral structure, and the phase of the cross midpoint is uncertain, namely the phase singularity. However, when the degree of coherence is reduced, the central light intensity of the vortex beam is no longer zero and gradually becomes solid, and the originally defined phase singularity gradually disappears, but in 2004, Palacios et al propose that when the degree of coherence is reduced, a singularity, called a coherent singularity, stably exists in the vortex-rotated spatial coherent structure.
At present, we have a relatively comprehensive topological charge measurement technique for a fully coherent beam. However, when the degree of coherence decreases, the original method will gradually fail.
The methods for measuring topological charge for vortex beams of complete coherence or higher coherence are mainly divided into three methods, namely interference methods, diffraction methods and light intensity analysis methods, wherein the interference methods include Mach-Zehnder interferometers, double slit interference (Liao Kun mountain, Chengzhong, Pu-er), Young double slit interference experiments are used for detecting the topological charge number [ J ] of vortex beams, university of China, 2009,30(6):623 627.) and multi-pin hole interference, the diffraction methods are methods using diffractive optical elements such as triangular apertures and gratings for realizing topological charge measurement (De Arajet 2E, Anderson M E.Meurasurcharge gradient with vertical aperture orientation [ J ]. Optics L meters, 2011,36(6):787 789.), and the most typical spectral methods in the light intensity analysis methods are those proposed by Prabhar and others (2011 polar and optical analysis methods), which are not subject to the spectral analysis of dark spectral analysis of vortex beams, which are gradually reduced by the spectral analysis of the spectral density of interference (the dark spectral analysis of vortex field, which corresponds to the spectral distribution of the dark spectral distribution of the vortex field of vortex interference (3619, 7. 20. the optical intensity analysis of vortex beam is also referred to the dark spectrum of the optical intensity analysis of vortex field.
For topological charge measurement of partially coherent vortex beams, the most used experimentally is currently the use of the close relationship between cross-correlation function (CCF) and topological charge number (Yang Y, Chen M, Mazilu M, et al. Effect of the radial and azimuthal modes index of a partial correlation site [ J ]. New journal theory, 2013,15(11):113053. L iu R, Wang F, Chen D, measurement modes of a partial correlation site with radial polarization behavior, 2013,15(11):113053. the cross-correlation function of the radial correlation property [ J ]. L, 2016, similar to the cross-correlation function of the radial correlation of the radial dislocation number of the radial correlation of the radial cross-correlation of the radial dislocation of the radial cross-correlation function (14, 80, L).
In addition, the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of the partially coherent vortex beam are measured by using the phase distribution diagram of the complex coherence function of the partially coherent vortex beam (X L u, C ZHao, Y Shao, J Zeng, appl. Phys. L etter.114,201106 (2019)).
For the three categories of methods for fully coherent or higher coherence vortex beams, the diffraction phenomena involved in coherence are no longer evident when the coherence is reduced, the corresponding methods are also progressively time-efficient, and for the light intensity analysis, the literature (Zhao C, Wang F, Dong Y, et al. effect of spatial coherence on determining the topologic theory of a void beam [ J ]. Applied Physics L meters, 2012,101(26):261104.) states that the dark ring number to topology number correspondence is disrupted as the coherence is reduced, and the method is progressively ineffective.
For the measurement of the topological charge of the partially coherent vortex beam, only the magnitude of the topological charge can be measured by using the relation between a cross-correlation function (CCF) and the topological charge, and the positive and negative information of the topological charge cannot be obtained.
The size, the positive value and the negative value of the topological charge number can be obtained simultaneously by utilizing the measurement of the complex coherence function, but an appropriate off-axis reference point needs to be found in the experiment, and the experiment condition is harsh and complex.
In the patent with the publication number CN107764417B, in order to measure the positive, negative and magnitude of the topological load, the reference point (disturbance point) loaded by the spatial light modulator needs to be deviated from the center, and an example of a set of reference point coordinates is also given in the embodiment, only by taking a proper reference point value, a clear singular point can be seen from the correlation function phase distribution diagram to read the positive, negative and magnitude of the topological load, and if the reference point takes a (0,0) point, or an improper non-zero point, the magnitude and positive and negative values of the topological load cannot be obtained. Particularly, when the reference point is (0,0), the phase distribution exhibits ring dislocation and no singular point can be seen. In the experiment, the selection condition of the off-axis reference point is very harsh, clear singular points can be seen only by finding a proper reference point, the selection of the reference point is related to factors such as the size of a light beam, and the like, and the proper reference point needs to be continuously debugged in the experiment, so that the experiment condition is very harsh and tedious, and the operation is very difficult. Meanwhile, positive and negative information of the topological load can be obtained only by calculating the complex phase dryness, so that the whole measuring process is more complicated.
