Coupling Efficiency of a Partially Coherent Radially Polarized Vortex Beam into a Single-Mode Fiber

We study the problem of coupling partially coherent radially polarized (PCRP) vortex beams into a single-mode optical fiber. Using the well-known concept of the cross-spectral density (CSD) matrix, we derive a general expression for the coupling efficiency of the partially coherent beam into a singl...
