Description

Design method of super-surface perfect vortex optical beam generator based on geometric phase regulation
Technical Field
The invention relates to a design method of a perfect vortex optical beam generator, in particular to a design method of a super-surface perfect vortex optical beam generator based on geometric phase regulation.
Background
Vortex Beam (VB) is a special beam with a helical phase front. The vortex beam can be used to manipulate particles or encode information in optical communication systems, and thus it is receiving increasing attention in many key fields such as optical trapping, optical communication, and quantum information processing. However, the annular size of the vortex beam varies with its topological charge, which makes it very difficult to couple and transmit vortex beams with different topological charges in a communication system. To solve this problem, the concept of Perfect Vortex Beam (PVB) is proposed, the annular size of its intensity not varying with the variation of the topological charge. The traditional generation mode of the perfect vortex light beam needs the combined action of a plurality of optical elements such as a spiral phase plate, an axial prism, a Fourier lens and the like, the structure is complex, and the application of the perfect vortex light beam in a miniaturized and integrated optical system is hindered.
The super surface is a plane structure formed by sub-wavelength two-dimensional micro-nano structures according to a specific arrangement mode, and can flexibly regulate and control the amplitude, the phase, the polarization state and the like of electromagnetic waves. The perfect vortex beam can be generated by using a transmission phase type super surface or a geometric phase type super surface. The geometric phase type super surface is composed of anisotropic structures (such as rectangles, ellipses and the like) with the same shape and different in-plane rotation angles, so that the geometric phase type super surface has good tolerance to errors caused by preparation. However, due to the intrinsic symmetry of the geometric phase super-surface, i.e. the incident left-handed circularly polarized light and right-handed circularly polarized light exhibit opposite phase distributions, the multifunctional super-surface device faces many difficulties in design. In order to overcome the above problems, a method of fusing a geometric phase and a transmission phase can be adopted, however, the method needs to perform a large number of parameter scans to obtain various required unit structures, and the design and the processing and preparation are more complicated.

Detailed Description
The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and it will be understood that they are described herein for the purpose of illustration and explanation and not limitation.
In particular implementations, the inventive super-surface structure is comprised of a two-layer structure. The upper layer is a dielectric medium microstructure layer 1 and is formed by arranging rectangular nano columns which are identical in shape and different in rotation angle theta according to a certain lattice period P; the lower layer is a base layer 2. The upper rectangular nano-pillars have different widths W in the direction of the length L, y of the geometric dimension in the x direction, and exhibit anisotropy; for an incident electromagnetic wave with x-polarization and y-polarization, the transmitted waves in these two directions will have a phase difference. The length L and the width W of the rectangular nano-column meet the following conditions: when the x-polarization electromagnetic wave and the y-polarization electromagnetic wave are incident, the phase difference of the transmitted waves in the two directions is 180 degrees, namely the rectangular nano-pillar is equivalent to a half-wave plate.
The thickness of the dielectric micro-structure layer 1, namely the height of the rectangular nano-column is 600nm, the material is titanium dioxide, the length L of the geometric dimension in the x direction is 274nm, the width W of the geometric dimension in the y direction is 82nm, the lattice period P is 350nm, and the rotation angle theta is related to the position of the rotation angle theta in the plane of the micro-structure layer 1; the thickness of the base layer 2 is 2um, and the material is glass.
The working wavelength of the super-surface structure is 532 nm.
The designed phase of the super surface of the perfect vortex beam is formed by linearly superposing the phases of a spiral phase plate, an axial prism and a Fourier lens, and is expressed by a formula as follows:
Figure BDA0003306662750000051
wherein,
Figure BDA0003306662750000052
Figure BDA0003306662750000053
Figure BDA0003306662750000054
in the above formula, x and y represent coordinates of the center point of the unit structure in the super-surface plane. Equation (2) is the phase equation for a spiral phase plate, where m represents the topological charge. Equation (3) is the phase equation of the axicon, where d is the axicon period, which controls the size of the bright ring radius of a perfect vortex beam. Equation (4) is the phase equation for a fourier lens, where f is the theoretical focal length of the lens and λ is the operating wavelength.
According to the principle of geometric phase regulation and control, when circularly polarized light passes through a super-surface unit array with a rotation angle theta, the transmission field comprises circularly polarized light with the same chirality as the incident light and also comprises circularly polarized light with the opposite chirality to the incident light, and the circularly polarized light has a phase mutation +/-2 theta, wherein +/-depends on the chirality of the incident circularly polarized light. When the super-surface cell array is a half-wave plate, the conversion efficiency of the polarization state is highest, namely the ratio of circularly polarized light opposite to the incident light chirality in the transmission field is the largest. Linearly polarized light can be seen as a superposition of a left-handed circular polarized component and a right-handed circular polarized component, and thus, when linearly polarized light is incident, the transmission field can still be seen as a superposition of the corresponding right-handed circular polarized component and left-handed circular polarized component.
Adding a perfect vortex phase in a half-wave plate super-surface array

The phase enables the incident levorotatory circular polarization component to generate a perfect vortex light beam after passing through the super surface, and simultaneously enables the incident dextrorotatory circular polarization component to be dispersed after passing through the super surface. On the contrary, if a perfect vortex phase is added to the half-wave plate super-surface array
Figure BDA0003306662750000062
The phase enables the incident right-handed circularly polarized component to generate a perfect vortex beam after passing through the super-surface, while the incident left-handed circularly polarized component is dispersed after passing through the super-surface. Therefore, in order to obtain a perfectly vortex beam with a linear polarization state, phase is added to the super-surface simultaneously

if two perfectly vortex beams are generated when x-polarization and y-polarization are incident simultaneously, the phase distribution of the super-surface can be expressed by the following formula:
