Polarization converter for higher-order laser beams based on the use of forming binary diffractive optical elements as beam splitter

We propose a new approach to generating a pair of initial beams for a polarization converter that operates by summing up two opposite-sign circularly polarized beams. The conjugated pairs of vortex beams matched with laser modes are generated using binary diffractive optical elements. The same binary...
