Gradient force pattern, focal shift, and focal switch in an apodized optical system

In this paper, the evolution of the gradient force pattern, focal shift, and focal switch induced by a three-portion pure phase-shifting apodizer is numerically investigated in detail. The results show that the proposed apodizer may induce tunable gradient force on the particles in the focal region, focal shift, and focal switch. By adjusting the geometrical parameters of the phase-shifting apodizer, multiple traps may occur with changeable distance between them, and the shape of the optical trap also evolves evidently. More interestingly, for certain geometrical parameters of the proposed apodizer, by changing the phase shift of inner annular portion, the considerable focal shift may occur with focal switch accompanying, which is discussed to show that this kind of apodizer may be a very promising method of transporting trapped particles.     

Focal shift of cylindrical vector axisymmetric Bessel-modulated Gaussian beam with radial variance phase wavefront

Axisymmetric Bessel-modulated Gaussian beam with quadratic radial dependence (QBG beam) has attracted much attention recently. In this paper, the focal shift of the cylindrical vector QBG beam with radial variance phase wavefront is investigated theoretically by vector diffraction theory. Results show that focus shifts considerably by changing the phase parameter C that indicates the radial phase variance speed. Under condition of small beam parameter μ of cylindrical vector QBG beam, there is one focal peak that shifts far away from optical aperture on increasing C. When μ increases, there may occur two focal peaks that also shift remarkably on increasing C. And it was found that the dependence of focal shift distance on increasing phase parameter is linear. Phase parameter adjusts the focal shift distance, while, polarization angle does not affect focal shift obviously.     

Focal shift for off-axial partially coherent flat topped beams passing a thin lens

Focal shift is evaluated for partially coherent off-axis flat topped beams propagated through a thin lens. We have shown that the focal shift decreases as the off-axis parameter (x₀) increases and, for fully coherent flat topped beams, focal shift is enhanced as the order of flat topped beam decreases, but the partially coherent one does not show this behavior. Also we have shown that there is a critical point for partially coherent flat topped beams. We investigated the dependency of focal shift in thin lens on correlation length and focal length.

Effective Fresnel number and focal shifts for focused cylindrical spherical aberrated beams

We define the effective Fresnel number of a focused cylindrical spherical aberrated beam. Based on the effective Fresnel number, a simple analytical expression for evaluating the relative focal shift is presented. It is shown that the relative focal shift is determined by the effective Fresnel number, which is dependent on the spherical aberration and Fresnel number of the focused system. To illustrate the approach, a comparison between the results obtained by this new method and the numerical integral calculation is made. The results indicate that the relative focal shift can be simply and exactly evaluated using this new method. A special case is discussed, in which the effective Fresnel number turns out to be a pure imaginary number, and the corresponding relative focal shift is positive.

Robust time reversal focusing in the ocean

Recent time-reversal experiments with high-frequency transmissions (3.5 kHz) show that stable focusing is severely limited by the time-dependent ocean environments. The vertical focal structure displays dynamic variations associated with focal splitting and remerging resulting in large changes in focal intensity. Numerical simulations verify that the intensity variation is linked to the focal shift induced by phase changes in acoustic waves resulting from sound speed fluctuations due to internal waves. A relationship between focal range shift, frequency shift, or channel depth changes is illustrated using waveguide-invariant theory. Based on the analysis of experimental data and numerical simulations, methods for robust time-reversal focusing are developed to extend the period of stable focusing.     

Focal shift and focal switch of partially polarized Gaussian Schell-model beams passing through a system with the aperture and spherically aberrated lens separated

Based on the beam coherent-polarization (BCP) matrix approach and propagation law of partially coherent beams, the focal shift and focal switch of partially polarized Gaussian Schell-model (PGSM) beams passing through a system with the aperture and spherically aberrated lens separated is studied in detail. Our main attention is focused on the effect of spherical aberration and partial coherence on the focal shift and focal switch of PGSM beams. It is shown that for polarizer-free case there is no focal switch of PGSM beams, the focal shift of PGSM beams is closely related with spherical aberration coefficient C₄, auto-coherence length σ_a, truncation parameter δ and relative position s/f between the aperture and lens in general, and is independent of the cross-coherence length σ_c. After inserting a polarizer the focal switch can take place. Numerical calculation results are given to illustrate how the spherical aberration and partial coherence affect the focal shift and focal switch of PGSM beams.

部分相干光被环形透镜聚焦而产生的焦移

 从理论上研究部分相干光被一环形透镜聚焦,在焦点附近的轴上点的光强分布。研究结果表明,当部分相干光被一环形透镜聚焦时,最大聚焦光强不在几何焦点,而是位于透镜与几何焦点之间,出现焦移现象。并且,焦移量不仅依赖于透镜外半径的菲涅耳数,还依赖于部分相干光的空间相干度和中心拦截比。透镜的菲涅耳数越小,焦移越大;部分相干光的空间相干度越低,焦移越大。当菲涅耳数一定时,环形透镜的中心拦截比越大,焦移越大;当空间相干度很小时,情况就变得比较复杂。

Influences of phase shift on superresolution performances of annular filters

This paper investigates the influences of phase shift on superresolution performances of annular filters. Firstly, it investigates the influence of phase shift on axial superresolution. It proves theoretically that axial superresolution can not be obtained by two-zone phase filter with phase shift π, and it gets the phase shift with which axial superresolution can be brought by two-zone phase filter. Secondly, it studies the influence of phase shift on transverse superresolution. It finds that the three-zone phase filter with arbitrary phase shift has an almost equal optimal transverse gain to that of commonly used three-zone phase filter, but can produce a much higher axial superresolution gain. Thirdly, it investigates the influence of phase shift on three-dimensional superresolution. Three-dimensional superresolution capability and design margin of three-zone complex filter with arbitrary phase shift are obtained, which presents the theoretical basis for three-dimensional superresolution design. Finally, it investigates the influence of phase shift on focal shift. To obtain desired focal shifts, it designs a series of three-zone phase filters with different phase shifts. A spatial light modulator (SLM) is used to implement the designed filters. By regulating the voltage imposed on the SLM, an accurate focal shift control is obtained.     

Focal shift of three-portion concentric piecewise cylindrical vector beam

Focal shift of a concentric piecewise cylindrical vector beam is investigated by means of vector diffractive theory. A section of the beam consists of three concentric portions. The center circle portion and outer annular portion are radial polarized, and the inner annular portion is generalized polarized. The phase of the inner annular portion is tunable. For certain geometric parameters of the beam, the focal shift occurs and can be adjusted by phase shift and polarized direction of the inner annular portion. For some cases, a three-peak focal pattern may occur, and peaks shift in the same direction, and one local minimum also shifts. For some other cases, a two-peak focal pattern may occur with shifting peaks. The tunable quantitative focal shift is investigated in detail.     

Focal shift in radially polarized beam with high NA lens axicon by using radial cosine phase wavefront

Focal shift in radially polarized beam with radial cosine phase wavefront are investigated theoretically by vector diffraction theory. The wavefront phase distribution is cosine function of radial coordinate. Simulation results show that when the radially polarized beam with radial cosine wavefront phase is focused, the focal pattern differs considerably with frequency parameter in the cosine function term. On increasing C, focus can shift along optical axis and focal pattern changes remarkably. Focus may move in different direction under different condition. Focal shift distance fluctuates on increasing C, and fluctuation amplitude also increases simultaneously. In addition, focal shift direction can also be adjusted by changing frequency parameter in cosine function.

Transverse superresolution and focal shift with rotational tunable phase mask

This paper reports the imaging characteristics of an optical system can be modified by our designed polarization pupil mask. The novel rotational symmetric polarization pupil mask design based on combination of half-wave and quarter-wave plates is introduced for realizing the focal shift and extending focal depth of an optical system and the procedure for designing is presented. Numerical results show when an appropriate rotational symmetric polarization pupil mask is used as an apodizer in the optical imaging system, it not only can effectively achieve the continuously focal shift in a small range and extend focal depth of the optimized system, but also can evidently increase the transverse resolution of the optimized system at the genuine focal plane.
