The setup mainly consists of a spatial light modulator（SLM）, an angle-adjustable polarization beam splitter modulator, and a spatial filtering imaging system. Compared with the system using a birefringent beam splitter with a non-adjustable splitting angle,the polarization splitting angle of the improved setup can be adjusted by slightly rotating the related mirrors,which will bring more convenience when different wavelengths and different pixel sizes of SLMs are involved.The experimental results also demonstrate that the setup possesses a good polarization-selective imaging ability, which reveals that the setup may also be useful in polarization-selective spatial filtering imaging and polarization-encoded encryption.展开更多

The detailed theoretical derivation to express the optical transform principle of the proposed method is presented. And excellent experimental results are demonstrated. It is shown that this approach works well and simplifies the experimental facility effectively, especially reducing the optical system length to half of that of the conventional method. In addition, the proposed method can realize the beam propagation trajectory control of Airy beam and generate Airy beam array.展开更多
