Polar POLICRYPS diffractive structures generate cylindrical vector beams [PDF]
Local shaping of the polarization state of a light beam is appealing for a number of applications. This can be achieved by employing devices containing birefringent materials. In this article, we present one such enables converting a uniformly circularly polarized beam into a cylindrical vector beam (CVB).

A miniaturized acoustic vector sensor with PIN-PMN-PT single crystal cantilever beam accelerometers
Directional sound detection using vector sensors rather than large hydrophone arrays is highly advantageous for target detection in SONAR. However, developing highly sensitive and compact vector sensors for use in a system whose size is limited has been ...

Focus shaping using cylindrical vector beams
We report a focus shaping technique using generalized cylindrical vector beams. A generalized cylindrical vector beam can be decomposed into radially polarized and azimuthally polarized components. Such a generalized cylindrical beam can be generated from a radially polarized or an azimuthally polarized light using a two-half-wave-plate polarization ...

Using low-refractive-index metamaterials, we design a transmission-type radial-angular cylindrical vector beam generator. A high numerical aperture lens is constructed using an asymmetric meta-grating structure. The metamaterial vector beam generator and

Switchable phase and polarization singular beams generation using dielectric metasurfaces
Singular beams which possess helical phase wavefront or spatially inhomogeneous polarization provide new freedom for optical field manipulation. However, conventional schemes to produce the singular beams have difficulty in realizing the flexible switch ...

Super-resolution optical microscopy using cylindrical vector beams
Abstract Super-resolution optical microscopy, which gives access to finer details of objects, is highly desired for fields of nanomaterial, nanobiology, nanophotonics, etc. Many efforts, including tip optimization and illumination optimization etc., have been made in both near-field and far-field super-resolution microscopy to achieve a ...

Scattering in Multilayered Structures: Diffraction from a Nanohole [PDF]
The spectral expansion of the Green's tensor for a planar multilayered structure allows us to semi analytically obtain the angular spectrum representation of the field scattered by an arbitrary dielectric perturbation present in the structure.
