We introduce an integrated polarization detection structure consisting of a photoelectric conversion material, silicon (Si), in the form of a wire grid and an aluminum (Al) wire grid polarizer layer. This structure provides transverse magnetic (TM) polarization absorptivity and an enhanced extinction ratio in the visible spectrum. Finite difference time domain simulations were used to examine the influences of different periods and thicknesses of the Si and Al grid components. The results showed that the absorptivity of TM polarization exceeded 70% in the visible spectrum (a 20% improvement), the absorptivity of transverse electric polarization was reduced by >90 % , and the extinction ratio improved by a factor of 33. When the incidence angle is over the range of 0 deg to 30 deg, the absorptivity of TM polarization and the extinction ratio perform well, exceeded 60% and 75.
In view of the light energy loss in central obscuration of coaxial reflex optical system, the design method of a kind of hollow beam generator is introduced. First of all, according to the geometrical parameter and obscuration ratio of front-end coaxial reflex optical system, calculate the required physical dimension of hollow beam, and get the beam expanding rate of the hollow beam generator according to the parameters of the light source. Choose the better enlargement ratio of initial expanding system using the relational expression of beam expanding rate and beam expanding rate of initial system; the traditional design method of the reflex optical system is used to design the initial optical system, and then the position of rotation axis of the hollow beam generator can be obtained through the rotation axis translation formula. Intercept the initial system bus bar using the rotation axis after the translation, and rotate the bus bar around the rotation axis for 360°, so that two working faces of the hollow beam generator can be got. The hollow beam generator designed by this method can get the hollow beam that matches the front-end coaxial reflex optical system, improving the energy utilization ratio of beam and effectively reducing the back scattering of transmission system.
