Device and method for generating column vector beams

2010 
The invention relates to a device and a method for generating column vector beams. TEM00 model beams outputted by a laser is changed into linearly polarized light through a polarizer after the beams are reshaped and expanded by a beam expander and a diaphragm; the beams enter a spatial light modulator or a complex filter, and form an array through an analyzer; the beams pass through a 4f system consisting of a pair of Fourier transform lenses and aperture diaphragms; the beams are added into a phase retarder for phase modulation so as to generate TEM10 (or TEM01) model beams, and are synthesized to the column vector beams by using an interference system. The device and the method have the advantages of low requirement on incident beam, simple device, easy operation, high polarization degree of the output column vector beams and the like.
