Measuring of Transverse Energy Flows in a Focus of an Aluminum Lens

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
In this study, we theoretically and experimentally investigate the propagation of a second-order cylindrical vector beam through an aluminum lens which forms a tight focus at the distance of the wavelength. Simulation by the finite-difference time-domain

Polarization Strips in the Focus of a Generalized Poincaré Beam

open access: yesPhotonics
We analyze the tight focusing of a generalized Poincaré beam using a Richards–Wolf formalism. Conventional Poincaré beams are superpositions of two Laguerre–Gaussian beams with orthogonal polarization, while the generalized Poincaré beams are composed of

Energy backflow in a focal spot of the cylindrical vector beam [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2018
Using Richards-Wolf formulae it is shown that a tightly focused azimuthally-radially polarized m-th order laser beam with an arbitrary apodization function produces a reverse energy flow in the focal plane (m=2).

Vortex energy flow in the tight focus of a non-vortex field with circular polarization [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2020
Using Richards-Wolf formulas, we show that an axisymmetric circularly polarized vortex-free field can be focused into a sharp subwavelength focal spot, around which there is a region where the light energy flow propagates along a spiral. This effect can

Longitudinal component of the Poynting vector of a tightly focused optical vortex with circular polarization [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2018
We numerically investigated the focusing of optical vortices with the wavelength λ = 532 nm and right-hand circular polarization by using a diffractive lens with the numerical aperture NA = 0.95.

The near-axis backflow of energy in a tightly focused optical vortex with circular polarization [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2018
Using the Richards-Wolf formulae for a diffractive lens, we show that in the focal plane of a sharply focused left-hand circularly polarized optical vortex with the topological charge 2 there is an on-axis backflow of energy (as testified by the negative

Formation of an elongated region of energy backflow using ring apertures [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2019
In this paper, we have investigated the focusing of a second-order cylindrical vector beam by using a high numerical aperture (NA) lens limited by a ring aperture using the Richards-Wolf formulae.

Toroidal polarization vortices in tightly focused beams with singularity

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2020
In this paper, we numerically investigated tight focusing of cylindrical vector beams of the sec-ond order using Richards-Wolf formulae. It was shown that intensity rings where the Poynting vector was equal to zero appeared not only in the focal plane ...

Formation of the reverse flow of energy in a sharp focus [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2019
It was theoretically shown that in the interference pattern of four plane waves with specially selected directions of linear polarization it is formed a reverse flow of energy.
