Spin-Orbital Conversion with the Tight Focus of an Axial Superposition of a High-Order Cylindrical Vector Beam and a Beam with Linear Polarization [PDF]
In this paper, spin-orbital conversion in the tight focus of an axial superposition of a high-order (order m) cylindrical vector beam and a beam with linear polarization is theoretically and numerically considered.

The Richards–Wolf formulas not only adequately describe a light field at a tight focus, but also make it possible to describe a light field immediately behind an ideal spherical lens, that is, on a converging spherical wave front. Knowing all projections

Transverse intensity at the tight focus of a second-order cylindrical vector beam
In this paper, an effect of a reverse energy flow at the focus of a second-order cylindrical vector beam which passed through amplitude zone plate was investigated with a scanning near-field optical microscope.

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

Vector Beams with Only Transverse Intensity at Focus
In this work, the tight focusing of vector beams with azimuthal polarization and beams with a V-line of polarization singularity (sector azimuthal polarization) was simulated numerically using the Richards–Wolf formulas.

An orbital energy flow and a spin flow at the tight focus
We have shown that a reverse energy flow (negative projection of the Poynting vector onto the optical axis) at the sharp focus of an optical vortex with topological charge 2 and left-hand circular polarization arises because the axial spin flow has a ...

Minimal focal spot obtained by focusing circularly polarized light
In this paper, using the Richards-Wolf equations, we analyze focusing circularly polarized light with flat diffractive lenses. It is shown that as the numerical aperture of the lens increases, the size of the focal spot first decreases and then begins to

Circular polarization before and after the sharp focus for linearly polarized light
We consider sharp focusing of a linearly polarized light beam. Using the Richards-Wolf formalism, we show that before and after the focal plane there are cross-section regions in which the polarization is circular (elliptical).
