    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Laser Physics
    • Microscopy

    Background:

    • Perfect optical vortices (POVs) are beams with unique phase structures.
    • Generating arrays of POVs with controllable properties is challenging.
    • Applications require precise manipulation of vortex position, OAM, and number.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and demonstrate a novel method for creating 3D multifocal perfect vortex arrays.
    • To enable flexible control over the properties of individual perfect vortices within an array.
    • To explore the potential of this technique for optical applications.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a high numerical aperture objective for tight focusing.
    • Designed a hybrid phase plate (HPP) for modulating vortex properties.
    • Calculated HPP phase using 3D phase shifting derived from Debye diffraction theory.
    • Developed a pixel checkerboard method for efficient phase encoding onto the HPP.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully generated 3D arrays of perfect vortices with tunable position, OAM states, number, and diameter.
    • Demonstrated that HPP segmentation impacts vortex quality and intensity uniformity.
    • Showcased high-quality, uniform vortex arrays in the tight focusing region using small-size lattices.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed HPP-based method offers a versatile approach for generating 3D multifocal perfect vortex arrays.
    • The pixel checkerboard technique efficiently encodes phase information for precise light modulation.
    • This technique holds promise for applications in optical coupling, optical coding, and decoding.
