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
Vortex beam i.e. phase of

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 light beam is no longer zero and gradually becomes solid, and the originally defined phase singularity gradually disappears.
At present, we have a relatively comprehensive topological charge measurement technique for a fully coherent beam. However, as the degree of coherence decreases, the original method will gradually fail.
For vortex light beams with complete coherence or high coherence, methods for measuring topological charge mainly include three types: interferometry, diffractometry and light intensity analysis. Wherein the interference method comprises Mach-Zehnder interferometer, double slit interference (Liaokunshan, Chengzang, Typha) and multi-pin hole interference, the Young double slit interference experiment is used for detecting the topological charge number [ J ] of the vortex light beam, university of Chinese, 2009,30(6):623-, and obtaining a spatial frequency spectrum, wherein the number of dark rings in a distribution diagram of the spatial frequency spectrum is the topological charge number of the vortex light beam. However, when the degree of coherence is reduced, the interference and diffraction phenomena are no longer obvious, and the corresponding method is gradually aged; for light intensity analysis, the literature (Zhao C, Wang F, Dong Y, et al. effect of spatial coherence on determining the polarization charge of a vortex beam [ J ]. Applied Physics Letters,2012,101(26):261104.) states that as coherence decreases, the correspondence between the number of dark rings and the number of topological charges is disturbed, and the method also gradually fails.
For topological charge measurements of partially coherent vortex beams, the most experimentally used at present is to use 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 asymmetric model indices of a partial coherent vortex field upper a partial correlation simple [ J ]. New Journal of Physics,2013,15(11):113053. the cross-correlation function of the radial and spatial model indices J ] Applied Physics, fibers, 108, 107) and the reduced cross-correlation function of the radial and transverse patterns of the radial lines 051 when compared to Liu R, Wang F, Chen D, et al. measuring model indices of a partial coherent vortex index with the radial cross-correlation property map of the radial and radial patterns of the light intensity of the cross-correlation property of the radial lines, 2016, and the cross-correlation function of the radial cross-correlation of the radial patterns of the light intensity of the radial patterns, and longitudinal patterns of the radial patterns of the light intensity of the radial patterns of the light intensity of the light beam, and radial patterns of the cross-correlation of the radial patterns of the light intensity of the radial patterns of the cross-correlation of the light intensity of the cross-correlation function of the radial patterns of the radial lines, 2016, 0, more stability exists (Palacios D M, Maleev I D, Marathay A S, et al.
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 Lu, C Zhao, Y Shao, J Zeng, appl. Phys. letter.114,201106 (2019)).
Aiming at three methods of vortex light beams with complete coherence or higher coherence, when the coherence is reduced, the interference and diffraction phenomena are no longer obvious, and the corresponding methods are gradually aged; for light intensity analysis, the literature (Zhao C, Wang F, Dong Y, et al. effect of spatial coherence on determining the polarization charge of a vortex beam [ J ]. Applied Physics Letters,2012,101(26):261104.) states that as coherence decreases, the correspondence between the number of dark rings and the number of topological charges is disturbed, and the method also gradually fails.
For the measurement of the topological charge of the partially coherent vortex light 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 of publication No. CN107764417B, in order to measure the positive, negative and magnitude of the topological charge, the reference point (disturbance point) loaded by the spatial light modulator needs to be offset from the center, and an example of a set of reference point coordinates is also given in the embodiment, only by taking proper reference point values, clear singular points can be seen from the correlation function phase distribution diagram to read the positive, negative and magnitude of the topological charge, and if the reference point is (0,0) point, or improper non-zero point, the magnitude and positive and negative values of the topological charge 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.
