Vector Light Field Immediately behind an Ideal Spherical Lens: Spin–Orbital Conversion, Additional Optical Vortices, Spin Hall Effect, Magnetization

The Richards–Wolf formulas not only adequately describe a light field at a tight focus, but also make it possible to describe a light field immediately behind an ideal spherical lens, that is, on a converging spherical wave front. Knowing all projections of light field strength vectors behind the le...
