  • In order to know effect of bandwidth on the focused properties and focal shift of Hermite-Gaussian (H-G) beam, propagation formula of H-G beams passing through a dispersion lens system with polychromatic TEM11 mode and TEM22 mode was obtained by using diffraction integral. The focused intensity distribution was studied by numerical calculation. The effect of bandwidth on focal shift of both modes were analyzed. The results show that the focal shifts of H-G beams with TEM11 mode and TEM22 mode increase with the increase of the bandwidth and depend on the relative bandwidth. Focal shift of TEM22 mode is greater than that of TEM11 mode when relative bandwidth is smaller than 0.25 whereas the latter is somewhat greater than the former when relative bandwidth exceeds 0.25. The principle maximum intensity and the secondary maximum intensity of TEM22 mode on the axis compete each other with the vary of bandwidth and then the axial primary maximum intensity transits from one place to another. The results are helpful for further application of the polychromatic H-G beams.

Abstract: In order to know effect of bandwidth on the focused properties and focal shift of Hermite-Gaussian (H-G) beam, propagation formula of H-G beams passing through a dispersion lens system with polychromatic TEM11 mode and TEM22 mode was obtained by using diffraction integral. The focused intensity distribution was studied by numerical calculation. The effect of bandwidth on focal shift of both modes were analyzed. The results show that the focal shifts of H-G beams with TEM11 mode and TEM22 mode increase with the increase of the bandwidth and depend on the relative bandwidth. Focal shift of TEM22 mode is greater than that of TEM11 mode when relative bandwidth is smaller than 0.25 whereas the latter is somewhat greater than the former when relative bandwidth exceeds 0.25. The principle maximum intensity and the secondary maximum intensity of TEM22 mode on the axis compete each other with the vary of bandwidth and then the axial primary maximum intensity transits from one place to another. The results are helpful for further application of the polychromatic H-G beams.

引言
  • 1981年,LI和WOLF在研究光束聚焦特性时发现了焦移现象[1-2]。光束聚焦特性和焦移现象在近几十年来吸引了很多人的关注[3-20]。已有的研究结果表明,很多光束在聚焦过程中都存在焦移现象,例如空心高斯光束、部分相干平顶光束、聚焦拉盖尔-高斯光束、部分相干拉盖尔-高斯光束[5-6, 11, 15]。近年来,对这一现象的研究深入到微纳光学领域[8, 13]。例如YU等人在2012年研究了等离子体透镜中的焦移现象[8]。2015年HE等人研究了基于GaN高对比度光栅的2维透镜中的焦移[13]。大家熟知菲涅耳数和截断参量是影响焦移的重要参量,近些年很多研究结果表明, 光束的带宽也会影响焦移[9-10, 21-22],这些结果给光束调控提供了一种新的方法。本文中研究了宽带厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜系统的聚焦特性和焦移。首先推导了宽带厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜系统的传输公式,然后以TEM11模和TEM22模为例讨论了带宽对宽带厄米-高斯光束的聚焦特性和焦移的影响,最后对所得结果进行了总结。

1.   宽带厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜系统的传输
  • 考虑宽带厄米-高斯光束通过一个如图 1所示的受光阑限制色散透镜系统。图中,2a是矩形硬边光阑的宽,F是焦点,f是焦距,P是考察面。基于惠更斯-菲涅耳衍射积分,可以得到宽带厄米-高斯光束中每一频率分量通过受光阑限制色散透镜系统的场分布为:

    Figure 1.  Schematic illustration of an apertured dispersion lens system

    式中, Emn(x0, y0, 0, ω)为初始入射光束,ω是频率,k是波数,mn是模指数,(x0y0)是初始横截面坐标,(xyz)是考察点坐标。ABCD为光束传输矩阵中的矩阵元,且传输矩阵为:

    式中, 色散透镜的焦距为f(λ)=(n0-1)f0/[n(λ)-1],其中n0f0是与中心波长λ0相关的折射率和焦距,n(λ)是与波长λ相关的折射率,λ是波长。考虑图 1中色散透镜的材料为熔石英,折射率n(λ)定义见参考文献[23]。

    假设初始入射光束可以表示为Emn(x0, y0, 0, ω)=Emn(x0, y0, 0)f(ω),其中E0(x0, y0, 0)是入射光束的空间模式:

    式中, Hm()和Hn()为厄米多项式,w0是与基模高斯光束相关的束腰宽度,另有:

    f(ω)是光束的频谱分布。考虑f(ω)在z=0处为高斯分布,即:

    式中, γω/ω0是相对带宽, ω0是中心频率, 高斯型频谱对应参量aG=(2ln2)1/2

    宽带光束通过受光阑限制的色散透镜后,光场分布由(1)式得到:

    式中, t=z/cc是光速。

    为简单起见,只考虑1维情况,2维情况可以类似得到。因此通过对空间部分积分后,得到TEM11模和TEM22模厄米-高斯光束的空间场分布为:

    其中,

    式中,α=(a/w0)2Fw=w02/(λf)分别是截断参量和光束相关的菲涅耳数,erf()是误差函数。最后由Imn(x, z, t)=|Emn(x, z, t)|2得到宽带厄米-高斯光束通过色散透镜的光强分布。

2.   计算分析和结果讨论
  • 基于前面推导得到的结果,下面通过数值计算例研究了带宽对TEM11模厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜系统的聚焦特性和焦移的影响。以下的计算示例中,因为仅考虑极大光强的变化,只讨论了t=z/c的光强分布。图 2γ分别为0.05, 0.1, 0.15时宽带TEM11模厄米-高斯光束聚焦场的光强分布灰度图。计算参量为f0=1.6mm, λ0=800nm, α=4, Fw=196。下面计算示例的计算参量相同。图 2a表明, 带宽较小时, 光强极大几乎就在几何焦点上; 然而当带宽增大时,光强极大会偏离几何焦点,如图 2b所示; 当带宽进一步增大,这一效应更明显,如图 2c所示。图 2的结果表明, 带宽影响宽带TEM11模厄米-高斯光束聚焦场分布和实际焦点位置,光强极大与几何焦点的距离随着带宽的增大而增大。

    Figure 2.  Focused fields grayscale images of polychromatic TEM11 mode H-G beams

    为清楚看出光强极大的位置变化,图 3中给出了相对焦移Δz=(z-f0)/f0随相对带宽的变化。从图中可以看出,在所讨论范围内,两者呈现线性关系,相对带宽越大光强极大位置变化越明显。例如γ=0.2时, |Δz|=0.0029,γ=0.4时, Δz增大为0.0063。焦移由光束的衍射现象引起[1-2],宽带光束中不同频率分量衍射程度不一样导致焦移随带宽发生变化。

  • 图 4γ分别为0.05, 0.1, 0.15时宽带TEM22模厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜的光强分布灰度图。光强极大位置变化类似TEM22模厄米-高斯光束,即带宽增大时光强极大会偏离几何焦点,并且光强极大与几何焦点的距离随着增大。

    Figure 4.  Focused field grayscale images of polychromatic TEM22 mode H-G beams

    图 5中给出了宽带TEM22模厄米-高斯光束的相对焦移Δz随相对带宽的变化,为便于比较,图中保留了宽带TEM11模厄米-高斯光束的曲线。图中结果表明,两者相对焦移随相对带宽的变化是一样的。但有趣的是,宽带TEM22模厄米-高斯光束的相对焦移绝对值|Δz|并不是一直大于TEM11模的|Δz|。从计算结果看:γ < 0.25时, 前者大于后者;而γ>0.25后, 后者会稍大于前者。例如,γ=0.15时, TEM22模的|Δz|=0.00237,而TEM11模的|Δz|=0.00196,前者比后者大17.3%;当γ=0.35时,两者分别为0.00549和0.00556,后者反而比前者大1.3%。只不过后者比前者大时两者的差距很小,并随着带宽增大, 差距趋于零。

    Figure 5.  The relative focal shift of polychromatic TEM11 mode H-G beams and TEM22 mode H-G beams vs. the relative bandwidth

    作者认为:图 5中的这种变化主要是由宽带TEM22模厄米-高斯光束轴上光强变化引起。从图 4c可以看出, 轴上有两个光强极大,即光强主极大和光强次极大,且光强主极大位于图中左边而光强次极大位于右边。然而当γ图 4c中的0.15增大到图 6中的0.22,光强主极大位于图中右边而光强次极大位于左边,与图 4c相反,即轴上的光强主极大从一个位置跃变到另一个位置。这一变化影响了宽带TEM22模厄米-高斯光束的聚焦光强分布,从而导致了在γ较大时, TEM11模和TEM22模的焦移不一样。

3.   结论
  • 作者研究了宽带TEM11模和TEM22模厄米-高斯光束通过受光阑限制色散透镜的聚焦特性和焦移。通过数值计算例分析讨论了带宽对光强分布和光强极大位置的影响,结果表明,带宽也是影响焦移的重要因素。TEM11模和TEM22模的焦移量都会随带宽的增大而增大。然而两者焦移量之间的相对大小并不确定,前者既可能大于后者,也可能小于后者。这一现象主要缘于带宽变化会导致TEM22模厄米-高斯光束轴上光强主极大从一个位置跃变到另一个位置。文中的研究结果有助于宽带厄米-高斯光束的应用。
