Formation and Control of the Polarization Structure of Vector Structured Laguerre-Gaussian Beams

Abstract

In this study, experiments were conducted aimed at the formation of both standard Laguerre-Gaussian vector beams and more complex structured Laguerre-Gaussian vector beams using a spatial light modulator. The ability to measure the polarization structure of these beams using a differential Stokes polarimeter was experimentally demonstrated. The obtained measurement data on the polarization distribution successfully correspond to theoretical calculations, which confirms the effectiveness and accuracy of this method in the analysis of optical structures.
