Polarization singularities of focused, radially polarized fields [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Optics, 2006
The state of polarization of strongly focused, radially polarized electromagnetic fields is examined. It is found that several types of polarization singularities exist. Their relationship is investigated, and it is demonstrated that on smoothly varying a system parameter, such as the aperture angle of the lens, different polarization singularities can

Spatially Variable Ripple and Groove Formation on Gallium Arsenide Using Linear, Radial, and Azimuthal Polarizations of Laser Beam [PDF]

open access: goldPhotonics
We demonstrated the linear, radial, and annular ripple formation on the surface of GaAs. The formation of linear ripples was optimized by the number of shots and the fluence of 30 ps, 532 nm pulses.

Fiber based polarization filter for radially and azimuthally polarized light

open access: goldOptics Express, 2011
We demonstrate a new fiber based concept to filter azimuthally or radially polarized light. This concept is based on the lifting of the modal degeneracy that takes place in high numerical aperture fibers. In such fibers, the radially and azimuthally polarized modes can be spectrally separated using a fiber Bragg grating.

Topological Charge of Light Fields with a Polarization Singularity

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
We have studied diverse vector and hybrid light fields, including those with multiple polarization singularities, and have derived relationships for polarization singularity indices based on the familiar Berry formula, which is normally utilized to find ...

Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction of a Gaussian beam with several polarization singularities [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2018
Alongside phase singularities (optical vortices), there may be light fields with polarization singularities (PS), i.e. isolated intensity nulls with radial, azimuthal, or radial-azimuthal polarization around them.

Spin Hall Effect in Paraxial Vectorial Light Beams with an Infinite Number of Polarization Singularities

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
Elements of micromachines can be driven by light, including structured light with phase and/or polarization singularities. We investigate here a paraxial vector Gaussian beam with an infinite number of polarization singularities residing evenly on a ...

High-power thin-disk lasers emitting beams with axially-symmetric polarizations

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2021
We present the intracavity generation of beams with radial polarization at an average output power of 750 W and an optical efficiency of 43% from a continuous wave thin-disk laser. Circular grating waveguide output couplers (GWOC) were used to select the
