摘要
Radially polarized beams have attracted much attention and found many applications in many optical systems, recently. And generation of radially polarized beams is necessary for experimental research and applications. In this paper, a kind of generation method was proposed. Two beams are obtained by spatial light modulator and pi phase plate, and then interfere to form desirable radially polarized beams. Experimental results show that radially polarized beams are higher property, which shows this kind of interferential generation of radially polarized laser beams work effectively.
