Extraordinary spin to orbital angular momentum conversion on guided zone plates

چکیده
Abstract Focusing systems with high numerical aperture can be used to convert spin angular momentum into orbital efficiencies of 50%, while for low apertures this conversion vanishes. In paper, based on the properties binary Fresnel zone plates, we propose a structure that is achieved by making an accurate selection width and depth rings. This allows us obtain large increase in resulting focusing fields, it also has special characteristic obtained higher structures, where standard do not work. The ability system perform extraordinary demonstrated FDTD methods analytical model developed using combination guided mode theory Stratton–Chu diffraction theory.

متن کاملLinear up-conversion of orbital angular momentum.
We experimentally demonstrated that infrared light imprinted with orbital angular momentum (OAM) was linearly converted into visible light using four-wave mixing (FWM) via a ladder-type configuration in 85Rb atoms. Simultaneously, we theoretically simulated this linear conversion process, and the theoretical analysis was in reasonable agreement with the experimental results. A large single-phot...
متن کاملProduction of electron vortex beams carrying large orbital angular momentum using spiral zone plates.
We report the production of electron vortex beams carrying large orbital angular momentum (OAM) using micro-fabricated spiral zone plates. A series of the spherical waves, focussing onto different positions along the propagating direction of the electron beam, were observed. The nth order vortex beam has an OAM n times larger than that of the first-order vortex beam. We observed an electron vor...

We present a general theory of spin-to-orbital angular momentum (AM) conversion of light in focusing, scattering, and imaging optical systems. Our theory employs universal geometric transformations of non-paraxial optical fields in such systems and allows for direct calculation and comparison of the AM conversion efficiency in different physical settings. Observations of the AM conversions usin...
متن کاملOptical spin-to-orbital angular momentum conversion in inhomogeneous anisotropic media.
We demonstrate experimentally an optical process in which the spin angular momentum carried by a circularly polarized light beam is converted into orbital angular momentum, leading to the generation of helical modes with a wave-front helicity controlled by the input polarization. This phenomenon requires the interaction of light with matter that is both optically inhomogeneous and anisotropic. ...
