Rapid fabrication of Spiral Varying Retarder for Using in Simple Schemes of Generating Radial and Azimuthal Vector Optical Fields
In this paper, the simple, reliable and efficient fabrication technology of spiral varying retarder (SVR) on Iceland spar for generating radially and azimuthally polarized beams from linearly polarized Gaussian beam for λ = 632.8 nm is shown. The SVR which consists of 20 sectors was made...
