Theoretical study of vortex beam generation based on geometric coordinate transformation
By performing a conformal optical mapping of an input beam from Cartesian to log-polar coordinates, we propose a method to generate vortex beam. By tilting the incident beam, a phase gradient is attached and evolves into a vortex phase due to the optical transformation. Thus, the topological charge...
