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. It was demonstrated that in a tight focus for these beams, there is no longitudinal component of the electric ﬁeld. Previously, a similar effect was demonstrated for azimuthally polarized light only. The longitudinal component of the spin angular momentum for these beams was calculated, and the possibility of creating sector azimuthally polarized beams (beams with V-line singularities) using vector waveplates was demonstrated.


Introduction
Currently, there is a growing interest of researchers in the use of azimuthally polarized light [1].Initially, azimuthal polarization was proposed to obtain compact spots [2,3].However, later other applications were demonstrated.For example, in [4,5], an azimuthally polarized beam was used to generate the third harmonic in ensembles of silicon nanoparticles (quadrumers and trimers).It is azimuthally polarized light that turned out to be the most suitable for the excitation of Mie resonances in the oligomers under study: generation was improved by two orders of magnitude compared to using linear polarization.In [6], a fiber-optic sensor was proposed in which the azimuthally polarized mode propagated as the fundamental mode.
Quite intriguing is the use of azimuthally polarized light for manipulation of magnetization, which is calculated as the vector product of the electric field and its complex conjugation: M~E×E*.The increased interest in the study of magnetization is caused by their possible application in optomagnetic memory systems [7,8].Due to the absence of a longitudinal component of the electric field, the magnetization in an azimuthally polarized vortex beam is always directed along the propagation axis.In this way, it has been possible to obtain spots [9], needles [10][11][12], chains [13][14][15], and arrays of magnetization [16].In [17], an increase in the magnetic field was observed at the center of quadrupoles and hexapoles made of silicon microspheres when they were illuminated by light with azimuthal polarization.
It should be noted that in a classical azimuthally polarized beam, the polarization direction changes continuously [1].In this paper, we will show that similar properties to azimuthally polarized beams can also be obtained for sectoral azimuthally polarized beams containing V-lines of singularity.Previously, similar piecewise continuous polarization states were investigated in [18][19][20].In [18], optical vortices with cylindrical polarization of half-integer orders were studied.In [19], the focusing of cylindrical vector beams of fractional orders was numerically simulated, and in [20], a vector beam that was formed from two other vector beams was considered-the upper part of the beam had one order, and the lower half had another order.Initially, there was no longitudinal spin angular momentum in these beams [19,20]: the polarization at each point of the initial beam was linear; however, with tight focusing, a nonzero longitudinal component of the spin angular momentum arose, which indicated the appearance of regions in which the polarization is elliptical.This effect is a special case of spin-orbit interaction in a tight focus.Beams with discontinuities in polarization can be created using metasurfaces based on superoscillations [21] or subwavelength gratings [22].
In this work, tight focusing of vector beams with azimuthal polarization and beams with V-lines of polarization singularity was simulated numerically using the Richards-Wolf formula.It was demonstrated that in a tight focus for these beams, there is no longitudinal component of the electric field.Previously, a similar effect was demonstrated for azimuthally polarized beams only.The absence of a longitudinal component of the electric field leads to the absence of transverse components of the spin angular momentum and transverse components of magnetization.This characteristic of the investigated beams can be used to obtain pure longitudinal magnetization distributions, for example in optomagnetic memory systems [7,8].The possibility of creating sectorial azimuthally polarized beams using vector wave plates and spatial light modulators was experimentally demonstrated.The intensity distribution patterns measured in the experiment were consistent with the simulation results.

Numerical Simulation
The simulation in this work was carried out by the calculation of the Richards-Wolf integral [23,24], in which the electric field at the focus of a high numerical aperture lens is calculated by the equation: where B(θ,ϕ) is the electric field of the incident beam (before the focusing lens); θ and ϕ are the polar and the azimuthal angles; T(θ) is the apodization function, which characterizes the focusing lens (for example, it is equal to T(θ) = cos(θ) 1/2 for aplanatic lenses [24], or T(θ) = cos(θ) −3/2 for zone plates [25]); ƒ is the focal length; k = 2π/λ is the wavenumber; λ is the wavelength; α is the maximum polar angle, which is defined by the numerical aperture of the lens α = arcsin(NA); and P(θ, ϕ) is the polarization vector: where a(θ,ϕ) and b(θ,ϕ) are functions describing the state of polarization of the xand y-components of the incident beam.The Richards-Wolf integral (1) is used to calculate the components of the electric and magnetic fields at the focus of a high numerical aperture lens because it allows calculation in a vector approximation-it calculates not only the transverse field components but also the longitudinal component.The Richards-Wolf integral is valid if the focal length is much longer than the wavelength of the focused light.For simplicity of calculations, it was assumed in the simulation that the zone plate (T(θ) = cos(θ) −3/2 [25]) with NA = 0.95 focusing the plane wave B(θ,ϕ) = 1 in air n = 1.In this work, vector beams with sector azimuthal polarization are investigated.Figure 1 shows the direction of polarization of the studied beams: Figure 1a shows the direction for an azimuthally polarized beam; Figure 1b,c show the direction of polarization of a beam with a V-line singularity [26]; Figure 1d shows the polarization of a beam with two V-line singularities.It should be noted that the direction of polarization of the beam in Figure 1b coincides with the direction of polarization of an azimuthally polarized beam that has passed through a binary step [27,28].

Experimental Measurement
To obtain vector beams with polarization shown in Figure 1a, a vector wave plate could be used; however, to obtain the polarization state shown in Figure 1b,c, this vector wave plate should be combined with a spatial light modulator.In our experimental measurements (Figure 2), laser light from MGL-F-532-700 (wavelength λ = 532 nm, output power 700 mW) was collimated by a pinhole PH (diameter D = 50 µm) and a spherical lens (L1) (f1 = 400 mm).After the lens L1, the expanded beam propagates through the transmissive spatial light modulator (SLM, Holoeye LC2012, resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels, pixel size of 36 µm).SLM was placed between two linear polarizers P1 and P2 to obtain a linearly polarized beam after phase modulation.Lenses L2 and L3 and iris diaphragm D were used to spatially filter the desired beam.Then, the beam was aligned with the center of the vector wave plate (VWP, LBTEK VR1).The resulting beam was focused by a lens with a small numerical aperture L4 (f4 = 100 mm).Objective lens O1 (Olympus RMS 20X) was used to obtain an image at the focus of the lens L4, and the image was projected onto a CCD camera (UCMOS10000KPA, resolution of 3584 × 2748 pixels, pixel size of 1.67 µm), in front of which a linear polarizer-analyzer P3 was placed.

Azimuthally Polarized Light
The polarization at which the electric field is directed strictly azimuthally is well known.The absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field, in this case, follows directly from Maxwell's vector equations written for a cylindrical coordinate system: when the derivative with respect to the azimuthal angle is set to zero, the system of six equations is divided into two systems of equations, each containing three equations (an analogy can be seen with TE-and TM-polarization in a Cartesian coordinate system).One of the systems is: where H is the magnetic field, ε and µ are the dielectric and magnetic permeability, and ε 0 and µ 0 are the electric and magnetic constants.The field described by (3) contains only one electrical field component E φ .
For a classical azimuthally polarized beam, the electric field component of the initial beam in (1) has the form: Substituting Equation ( 4) into (2), we can see that Previously, only the case of azimuthal polarization was studied (without singularity lines).Azimuthal polarization is a special case of a beam with a V-point singularity [26] located at the center of the beam.
The result of focusing an azimuthally polarized beam (4), calculated by (1), is shown in Figure 3.The distribution of intensity 3a) and its individual components are shown.From Figure 3d, it can be seen that the longitudinal component is equal to zero.

The result of focusing an azimuthally polarized beam (4), calculated by (1), is shown in Figure 3.The distribution of intensity I = |Ex| 2 +|Ey| 2 +|Ez| 2 (Figure 3a) and its individual components are shown.From Figure 3d, it can be seen that the longitudinal component is equal to zero.It should be noted that the absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field leads to the fact that the spin angular momentum (SAM) vector will contain the longitudinal component only (or S z ≡ 0): Im(E * × E), (6) where ω is the angular frequency of the light (the constant 1/(8πω) will be then omitted), sign "*" means complex conjugation.It should be noted that the spin angular momentum Appl.Sci.2023, 13, 12519 5 of 10 ( 6) is opposite, and differs in absolute value only by a factor from the magnetization vector: where γ is the magneto-optical susceptibility.
Previously [29], it was shown that the components of the electric field for azimuthally polarized light have the form: where In ( 9), x = krsinθ, J m (x) is the mth order Bessel function, and B(θ) is a real function describing the input field amplitude in the plane of the entrance pupil of the aplanatic system, depending only on the angle θ.By substituting ( 8) into (6), we can show that the longitudinal component of the SAM in focus is equal to zero.
To obtain azimuthally polarized light, there are currently commercially available vector wave plates (we used LBTEK VR1).Linearly polarized light incident on such an element along the x-axis is converted into an azimuthally polarized beam, and linearly polarized along the y-axis into a radially polarized beam, thus creating the Jones matrix: Figure 4 shows an image of a beam obtained by propagating linearly polarized light (from laser MGL-F-532-700 with a wavelength λ of 532 nm and an output power of 700 mW) through a vector wave plate (VWP, LBTEK VR1) at different positions of the linear polarizeranalyzer P in front of the recording CCD camera (UCMOS10000KPA).Figure 4 shows that the beam polarization corresponds to the azimuthal one.The intensity distribution in Figure 4 corresponds to the distribution in Figure 3.

It is possible to obtain other beams that do not have the z-component of the electric field.It is possible if, in addition to the V-point singularity, the beam contains V-line singularities [26].The polarization functions of the initial field (1), in this case, are [30]: Figure 4 shows that the beam polarization corresponds to the azimuthal one.The intensity distribution in Figure 4 corresponds to the distribution in Figure 3.

Beam with Two V-Lines of Polarization Singularity
It is also possible to shape the direction of polarization sector-by-sector.For example, the 1st and 3rd sectors have the polarization (a(ϕ) = − sin(ϕ), b(ϕ) = cos(ϕ)), and the 2nd and 4th have the polarization (a(ϕ Such a vector field will have two V-lines of polarization singularity (Figure 1d).For this case, the result of focusing is shown in Figures 8 and 9. Figure 8 shows the intensity and its components, and Figure 9 shows longitudinal component of the SAM in the focus plane (z = 0).

Discussion
In this paper, we investigated vector beams with azimuthal (Figure 1a) and sector azimuthal polarization (Figure 1b-d).Sector azimuthal polarization contains V-lines of polarization singularity.The absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field for these beams follows directly from the Maxwell Equation (3).
Tight focusing characteristics of the studied beams were investigated using the Richards-Wolf integral (1).The absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field was numerically proven (Figures 3d, 5d, and 8d).The intensity pattern of the transverse component differs for the investigated beams.Azimuthally polarized light (Figure 1a) has a doughnut-shaped structure (Figure 3a); however, the beams with V-line singularity (Figure 1b,d) have a peak-shaped focal spot (Figures 5a and 8a, consequently).In other words, all the studied beams do not have a longitudinal component of the electrical field; however, at the same time, they have different intensity shapes-peak or doughnut-and as a result, they could be used in different applications, where different shapes of transverse intensity without longitudinal intensity are needed.
Experimentally, the investigated beams with V-line polarization singularity (Figure 1b-d) could be generated using a vector wave plate and a spatial light modulator.The vector wave plate rotates the direction of polarization and converts the linearly polarized light to the beam with azimuthal polarization (Figure 1a).The example of an azimuthally polarized beam obtained after passing the linearly polarized beam through a vector wave plate is shown in Figure 4.Moreover, if the incident beam has sector linearly polarized light (for example, the Gauss-Hermite beam (0.1)), then after passing the vector wave plate, the output beam has sector azimuthal polarization.A beam with sector linear polarization could be generated using a spatial light modulator.Therefore, a spatial light modulator combined with a vector wave plate could be used to obtain the investigated sector azimuthal beams (Figure 2).The example of the focused beam with V-line singularity is shown in Figure 7.The intensity distribution pattern at the focus was consistent with the simulation.
It should be noted that due to the absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field E z , the investigated beams do not contain transverse components of spin angular momentum (S x = S y = 0).It is equivalent to the absence of transverse components of magnetization because the magnetization contains the same non-zero components as SAM.Moreover, the longitudinal component of SAM of the pure azimuthally polarized beam (Equation (4), Figure 1a) is always equal to zero.It could be proven analytically by Equation (8).The longitudinal component of SAM of the beam with V-line singularity (Equation (11), Figure 1b) is equal to zero at the focal plane; however, it is non-zero in the vicinity of the focal plane (z = 0, Figure 6).The longitudinal component of SAM of the beam (Equation ( 16), Figure 1c) is non-zero both at the focal plane and in the vicinity of the focal plane (Figure 9).This effect of the investigated beams can be used to obtain pure longitudinal magnetization distributions in optomagnetic memory systems [7,8].
The investigated beams (Figure 1) have local linear polarization in the initial plane; however, in tight focus, there are regions with elliptical polarization (Figures 6 and 9).This effect is a particular case of the Hall effect (or spin-orbit conversion) at a tight focus [30][31][32][33].

Conclusions
In this work, the tight focusing of vector beams with azimuthal polarization and beams with V-line of polarization singularity was simulated numerically using the Richards-Wolf formulas.It was demonstrated that in a tight focus for these beams, there is no longitudinal component of the electric field.The absence of the longitudinal component of the electric field leads to the fact that the spin angular momentum vector contains only the longitudinal component.Previously, a similar effect was demonstrated only for azimuthally polarized beams.The possibility of experimental generation of the studied beams using a spatial light modulator was demonstrated.
