The appearance and annihilation of the spin angular momentum for the multi-polar vector optical field in the focal plane

Vector optical fields (VOFs) with space-variant polarizations have attracted great attention in various areas, and the VOFs have been applied to study the spin angular momentum (SAM) of the photon, leading to many new effects and applications. Here, we propose the multi-polar coordinate and design a...
