Generation of Non-diffraction Vortex Beam and Its Application in Digital Communication

Abstract

An axicon-frustum basin-type Bessel resonator is designed for generating non-diffraction vortex beams with opposite propagation directions under different conditions. Based on the theory of geometric optics, the principle of creating vortex beams is analyzed in this axicon-frustum basin-shaped resonant cavity. It is shown that a non-diffraction vortex beam can be produced in the cavity under high-order beam stimulation. In the terahertz wavebands, the dyadic Greens function algorithm is used to numerically evaluate the electromagnetic characteristics in the cavity, and the numerical results demonstrate that the conclusion of the principle analysis is valid. Finally, the application of nondiffraction vortex beams in digital communication is explored.

I. INTRODUCTION

After the natural phenomenon of the vortex was found by Airy experimentally [11 M. Born, “Principles of Optics-electromagnetic Theory of Propagation, Interference and Diffraction of Light (7. ed.),” DBLP, 1999.], its novel characteristics of singularity structure and conical surface wave have attracted much attention of a large number of researchers. In particular, the find of non-diffraction vortex beams [22 J. Durnin, M. J. Jr, J. H. Eberly, “Diffraction-free Beams,” Physical Review Letters, vol. 58, no. 15, pp. 1499-1501, 2008.],[33 J. Durnin, “Exact Solutions for Non-diffracting Beams. I. The Scalar Theory,” J. opt. soc, vol. 4, pp. 651-654, 1987.] has led to a series of achievements in the theory, generation, detection, transmission, and applications of vortex beams (including Bessel vortex beams). For example, it has been proven that the higher-order Bessel- Gaussian beam [44 V. Bagini, F. Frezza,M. Santarsiero, G. Schettini, and G. Schirripaspagnolo, “Generalized Bessel-Gauss beams,” Optica Acta International Journal of Optics, vol. 43, no. 6, pp. 12, 1996.] is a solution to the Helmholtz equation in the paraxial approximation in optics, and that it is a hollow beam with all of the properties of a vortex beam. Researchers also used the axicon to obtain the Bessel-Gaussian beam [55 G. M. Chen, H. C. Lin, J. X. Pu.,”Generation of High-order Bessel Beams by Focusing Vortex Beams with an Axicon,” Journal of Optoelectronics Laser, vol. 22, no. 6, pp. 945-950, 2011.],[66 X. Y. Liu, X. F. Dai, L. Y. Shan, N. Wang, and S. N. Xu, “Focusing Properties of Vortex Beam with an Axicon,” Laser & Optoelectronics Progress, vol. 49, no. 2, 022601,2012.] and explored its applications. With the continuous and indepth study of the Bessel vortex beam, its characteristics and related applications would be more fruitful. In 1995, the phenomenon that the orbital angular momentum of a photon passed to the particles was observed through experiment by He et al. [77 H. He, M. E. Friese, N. R. Heckenberg, H. Rubinsztein-Dunlop, “Direct Observation of Transfer of Angular Momentum to Absorptive Particles from a Laser beam with a Phase Singularity,” Physical Review Letters, vol. 75, no. 5, pp. 826-829, 1995.]. In 1996, Simpson [88 N. B. Simpson, K. Dholakia, L. Allen, M. J. Padgett, “Mechanical Equivalence of Spin and Orbital Angular Momentum of Light: an Optical Spanner,” Optics Letters, vol. 22, no.1, pp. 52-4, 1997.] achieved the induced rotation of tiny particles via optical vortex orbit angular momentum. This optical rotation is also named as an “optical spanner”. Gahagan [99 K. T. Gahagan, G. A. Swartzlander, “Optical Vortex Trapping of Particles,” Optics Letters, vol. 21, no. 11, pp. 827-9, 1996.] conducted three-dimensional optical particle-bound manipulation on the particles with a vortex beam to move the particles along the focal length, creating the so-called “optical trapping technique”. In addition, the vortex beam has also been widely used in the fields of optical computing [1010 T. Kuga, Y. Torii, N. Shiokawa, T. Hirano, Y. Shimizu, and H. Sasada, “Novel Optical Trap of Atoms with a Doughnut Beam,” Physical Review Letters, vol. 78, no. 25, pp.4713-4716, 1997.], atomic cooling [1111 K. Lee, J. A. Kim, K. Kim, “Cold Atoms in Hollow Optical Systems,” Journal- Korean Physical Society, vol. 35, no. 3, pp. 115-121, 1999.], biomedicine [1212 R. Dasgupta, S. Ahlawat, R. S. Verma, P. K. Gupta, “Optical Orientation and Rotation of Trapped Red Blood Cells with Laguerre-Gaussian Mode,” Optics Express, vol. 19, no. 8, pp. 7680-7688, 2011.], quantum communication [1313 S. S. R. Oemrawsingh, J. A. De Jong, X. Ma, A. Aiello, E. R. Eliel, and G. W. Hooft, “High-dimensional Mode Analyzers for Spatial Quantum Entanglement,” Physical Review A, vol. 73, no. 3, 32339, 2006.], and biological science. However, the study of vortex beam in microwave and millimeter wave bands lags far behind that of optical vortices [1414 J. Jin, W. Shao, F.Q Meng, “Application of Vortex Electromagnetic Wave in Military Wireless Communication,” Communications Technology, vol. 47, no. 9, pp. 985-988, 2014.],[1515 L.I. Xi, Z.I. Feng, J. Feng, Z. Qixun, “Electromagnetic Vortex and Its Application in Wireless Communication,” Telecommunication Engineering, 2015.]. Until 2007, no one other than Thide [1616 B. Thidé, H. Then, J. Sjöholm, K. Palmer, J. Bergman, and T. D. Carozzi, “Utilization of Photon Orbital Angular Momentum in the Low-frequency Radio Domain,” Physical Review Letters, vol. 99, no. 8, 087701,2007.] had employed the vortex beam characteristics of orbital angular momentum (OAM) to improve the capacity of communication systems. After that, people began to get involved in this field. The vortex beam in microwave and millimeter wave bands is mainly generated by antenna arrays [1717 D. Liu, L. Gui, M. R. Akram, “Generation of OAM Radio Waves Using Slot Antenna Array,” Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference. IEEE, pp. 1-3, 2015.],[1818 S. Zheng, X. Hui, X. J., H. Chi, and X. Zhang, “Generation of OAM millimeter waves using traveling-wave circular slot antenna based on ring resonant cavity,” IEEE International Conference on Computational Electromagnetics, pp. 239-240, 2015.],[1919 Y. LI, W. C MO, Z. G. Yang., J. S. LI, and K. J. Wang, “Generation of Terahertz Vortex Beams Based on Metasurface Antenna Array,” Laser technology, vol. 41, no. 5, pp. 644-648, 2017.], helical surfaces [2020 F. Tamburini, B. Thidé, V. Boaga, F. Carraro, M. Del Pup and A. Bianchini, “Experimental Demonstration of Freespace Information Transfer Using Phase Modulated Orbital Angular Momentum Radio,” Physics, arXiv:1302.2990v2, 2013.],[2121 A. Bennis, R. Niemiec, C. Brousseau, K. Mahdjoubi, and O. Emile, “Flat Plate for OAM Generation in the Millimeter Band,” 7th IEEE European Conference on Antennas and Propagat., pp. 3203-3207, 2013.], and transmission grating structures [2222 F. E. Mahmouli, S. D, “Walker 4-Gbps Uncompressed Video Transmission over a 60 GHz Orbital Angular Momentum Wireless Channel,” IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, vol. 2, no. 2, pp. 223-226, 2013.]. This electromagnetic vortex wave with OAM provides a new degree of freedom that can be used for multiplexing technology. The value of its topological charge is unlimited in theory and its OAM is orthogonal each other, which can be widely used in wireless communication [2323 F. Tamburini, E. Mari, A. Sponselli, F. Romanato, B. Thidé, and A. Bianchini, “Encoding Many Channels in the Same Frequency through Radio Vorticity: First Experimental Test,” New Journal of Physics, vol. 14, no. 3, pp. 811-815, 2012.],[2424 J. Kupferman, S. Arnon, “Receiver Design for OWC Orbital Angular Momentum Communication in Data Center Applications,” IEEE International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processin., pp. 1-6, 2016.] to expand the communication capacity. Therefore, in the present paper we reconstruct an axicon-frustum basin-shaped resonant cavity based on the original resonator. Numerical results demonstrate that the designed cavity can produce a nondiffraction vortex beam at THz band under high-order beam stimulation.

II. DESIGN OF RESONATOR

Three types of Bessel resonators [2525 H. Huang, Y. Z. Yu. “Design and Analysis of Bessel Resonator at Terahertz Frequencies,” Laser & Optoelectronics Progress, vol. 54, no. 1, 012601,2017.] have been built and another type of resonator has been rebuilt in our previous work [2626 H. Huang, Y. Z. Yu. “A New Frustum Bessel Resonator,” Journal of Microwaves, vol. 33, no. 6, pp. 52-56,84, 2017.]. Now, an axicon-frustum basin mirror (face mirror) is added to the axiconfrustum resonator [2626 H. Huang, Y. Z. Yu. “A New Frustum Bessel Resonator,” Journal of Microwaves, vol. 33, no. 6, pp. 52-56,84, 2017.] to form an axicon-frustum basin-shaped resonator. As shown in Fig. 1, the cavity length of the built-in Bessel resonator satisfies the following condition:

(1) L A 1 2 ( η 1 ) α
Fig. 1
Axicon-frustum basin resonator with different sizes. (a) axicon-frustum basin bottom radius A3 > A1/2, (b) axicon- frustum basin bottom radius A3 < A1/2, (c) simulation model.

where A1 is the aperture radius of the axicon, η denotes the refractive index of the axicon, and α represents the vertex angle. The resonant cavity can oscillate to form electromagnetic modes under the condition of

(2) L = q λ q 2

where L is the cavity length, q is a positive integer, and λq is the resonant wavelength. Fig. 1 shows an axicon-frustum basin-type Bessel resonator constructed by mirror M1 and mirror M2, where M1 is an axicon-frustum basin-shaped mirror and M2 is a face mirror with radius A2. Fig. 1(a) depicts the axicon-frustum basin-shaped resonator with radius A3 > A1/2. The non-diffraction beams form the area where the two conical beams overlap each other in front of mirror M2 [2626 H. Huang, Y. Z. Yu. “A New Frustum Bessel Resonator,” Journal of Microwaves, vol. 33, no. 6, pp. 52-56,84, 2017.]. Fig. 1(b) shows another cavity with radius A3 < A1/2. From image theory, the beams B1 and B2 can be considered to be emitted from mirror M3 and the two beams B1’ and B2’ intersect in front of the mirror M1. A Bessel beam is also formed, but in the opposite direction of Fig. 1(a). If (1) and (2) are simultaneously satisfied, the cavity will oscillate to forming standing waves. If antinodes are selected on the mirror surface, a Bessel beam will appear. When a partial reflection film is plated on one mirror and a total reflection film is plated on another mirror, a coupled output beam can be obtained. Fig. 1(c) shows the simulation model of the axicon-frustum basin-shaped resonator.

III. THEORY ANALYSIS

Suppose there is a vortex wave beam propagating along the z-axis through the spiral phase plate, satisfying:

(3) E ( ρ , φ ) = E 0 ( ρ ) exp ( i 1 φ )

where ρ is the distance from the observation point to the center axis of the beam, φ is the azimuth angle, l is the number of topological charge which means the mode number of the vortex beam, E0 (ρ) denotes the radial amplitude distribution of incident beam. The waveform generated by the axicon is shown in Fig. 2.

Fig. 2
Schematic diagram of the high-order Bessel vortex beam generated by the vortex beam through the axicon.

Using the Fresnel-Kirchhoff diffraction integral formula under cylindrical coordinates, the field distribution E (ρ, z) after the axicon is [2727 V. Jarutis, R. Paškauskas, A. Stabinis. “Focusing of Laguerre-Gaussian Beams by Axicon,” Optics Communications, vol. 184, no. 1-4, pp.105-112, 2000.],[2828 G. M. Chen, H. C. Lin, J. X. Pu,”Generation of High-order Bessel Beams by Focusing Vortex Beams with an Axicon,” Journal of Optoelectronics Laser, vol. 22, no. 6, pp. 945-950, 2011.]:

(4) E ( ρ , z ) = i k z exp [ i k ( z + ρ 2 2 z ) ] 0 R E ( ρ , φ ) t ( ρ ) J n ( k ρ ρ z ) exp ( i k ρ 2 2 z ) ρ d ρ

where k = 2π / λ is the wave number in free space, ρ is the radial coordinate, R is the aperture radius of the axicon, Jn is the Bessel function of the nth order, and its order is generally selected the same as the topological charge number, namely n = 1. The penetrating rate t(ρ) is written as

(5) t ( ρ ) = { exp [ i k ( η 1 ) β ρ ] , ρ R 0 , ρ > R

where β represents refraction vertex angle (see Fig. 2), and α = arcsin(η sin β) – β. Substituting (3) and (5) into (4) yields:

(6) E ( ρ , z ) = i k z exp ( i k z ) 0 R E ( ρ ) exp ( i l φ ) exp { i k [ ρ 2 + ρ 2 2 z ( η 1 ) β ρ ] } J 1 ( k ρ ρ z ) ρ d ρ

Setting f(ρ)=exp{ik[ρ22z(η1)βρ]} yields:

(7) E ( ρ , z ) = i k z exp [ i k ( z + ρ 2 2 z ) ] 0 R E 0 ( ρ ) exp ( i l φ ) × J 1 ( k ρ ρ z ) × f ( ρ ) ρ d ρ

The vortex beam is confined in the non-diffractive region, as defined by the collimation zmax:

(8) z max = R ( η 1 ) θ

If the length of the conical cavity resonator satisfies Lzmax, a stable non-diffracted resonated mode can be achieved in the cavity after transmitting back and forth several times. By employing the element boundary method, the field intensity of resonated mode in the cavity can be calculated by

(9) E ( ρ , z ) = i k z exp [ i k ( z + ρ 2 2 z ) ] x=R A 1 E 0 ( x ) exp ( i l φ ) × x J 1 ( k ρ x z ) × f ( x )

IV. IDGF algorithm and numerical simulation

In order to accurately calculate resonant mode in the cavity, we employ the three-dimensional IDGF algorithm [2525 H. Huang, Y. Z. Yu. “Design and Analysis of Bessel Resonator at Terahertz Frequencies,” Laser & Optoelectronics Progress, vol. 54, no. 1, 012601,2017.] that is the dyadic Green's function formula combined with the element boundary method:

(10) E r ( r r ) = a = 1 w b = 1 w G ¯ ¯ e e ( r r , r r ) J ( r r ) + a = 1 w b = 1 w G ¯ ¯ e m ( r r , r r ) M r ( r r )
(11) H r ( r r ) = a = 1 w b = 1 w G ¯ ¯ m e ( r r , r r ) J ( r r ) + a = 1 w b = 1 w G ¯ ¯ m m ( r r , r r ) M r ( r r )

where G=ee(rr,rr), G=mm(rr,rr) denote the dyadic Green's functions of electric and magnetic types, respectively; G=em(rr,rr), G=me(rr,rr) denote the dyadic Green's function of electric-magnetic and magnetic-electric types, respectively; rr(x,y,z) and rr(x,y,z) represent any observation point and source point, respectively; and Jr(rr), Mr(rr) represent the surface current density and surface magnetic flux density, respectively. The core steps are as follows:

  • Step 1: assuming that there exist an initial vortex excitation on mirror M1;

  • Step 2: when this excitation transits forth from mirror M1 to mirror M2, the intensity distribution on the mirror M2 can be evaluated by using Eqs. (10) and (11);

  • Step 3: then the beam on the M2 transits back from M2 to M1, we can also obtain the intensity distribution on the M1 in the same way;

  • Step 4: repeat steps 2 and 3, until the electromagnetic field in the resonator reaches to the steady state.

  • Step 5: The stable fields on the mirror are normalized and depicted.

As example, we present the simulation example at terahertz frequency band. The initial excitation is a high-order beam. The relevant parameters used in this example are as follows: vacuum permeability μ0 = 4.0 × π × 10−7, vacuum dielectric constant ε0 = 8.854 × 10−12, working wavelength λ = 0.32mm, A1 = 120mm, A2 = A1/2 = 60mm, and a = 20.3845°. When the axicon-frustum basin radius A3 = 0.35 × A1 or A3 = 0.75 × A1, the topological charge l = ± 1, and the distribution of the field strength at the mirror M2(M1) is shown in Fig. 3. When the radius of axicon-frustum basin R = 0.38 × A1 or R = 0.55 × A1, the topological charge l = ±2, and the distribution of the field strength at the mirror M2(M1) is illustrated in Fig. 4.

Fig. 3
Topological charge number l = ± 1, intensity and phase distributions on mirror M2 (a, c, e) and Ml (b, d, f). (a) and (b) three-dimensional (3D) normalized intensity distributions; (c) and (d) 2D normalized intensity distributions (top view); (e) and (f) 2D phase distributions.

From this example, we can draw the following conclusions: Firstly, the oscillation can be excited to generate Bessel vortex beam in the axicon-frustum basin-type resonator at terahertz waveband. Second, the vertex angle α of an axicon is in proportion to the number of topological charge 1, that is, the larger l generally leads to the larger α. Third, two output beams on mirrors Ml and M2 are in the contrary directions due to the opposite directions of two mirrors. When the topological charge is l = ± 1, two beams are generated and their phase difference is 180°; when the topological charge is 1 = ± 2, four beams are obtained and the phase difference is 90°. The center of each beam is dark also named as a hollow beam. The generated Bessel vortex beam can be explored in digital communication, as discussed below.

V. DIGITAL COMMUNICATION EXPLORATION

A non-diffraction vortex beam with a phase singularity can play a huge role in digital communication. At present, the OAM of the vortex beam are successfully used to the multiplexing of wireless digital communication. OAM multiplexing can be performed [1616 B. Thidé, H. Then, J. Sjöholm, K. Palmer, J. Bergman, and T. D. Carozzi, “Utilization of Photon Orbital Angular Momentum in the Low-frequency Radio Domain,” Physical Review Letters, vol. 99, no. 8, 087701,2007.] as long as the OAM mode is different, and the multiplexed total field distribution can be written by

(12) E m u l t i ( ρ , φ ) = 1 = 2 , 1 0 2 E 1 ( ρ , φ ) = 1 = 2 , 1 0 2 E 1 ( ρ ) exp ( i l φ ) = E 2 ( ρ ) exp ( i 2 φ ) + E 1 ( ρ ) exp ( i φ ) + E + 1 ( ρ ) exp ( i φ ) + E + 2 ( ρ ) exp ( i 2 φ )

At the receiving end, non-diffraction beam will not spread, so the original phase rotation factor exp (i1 φ) can be removed by using a spiral phase plate with the same size and topological charge of the transmitting end; thus, the ordinary electromagnetic wave can be obtained by

(13) E d e m u l t i ( ρ , φ ) = exp ( i l φ ) E m u l t i ( ρ , φ ) = exp ( i 1 φ ) 1 = 2 , 1 0 2 E 1 ( ρ ) × exp ( i l φ )

For example, when l = ± 2, (13) can be rewritten as

(14) E ( ρ , φ ) = E 2 ( ρ ) + E 1 ( ρ ) exp ( i φ ) + E + 1 ( ρ ) exp ( i 3 φ ) + E + 2 ( ρ ) exp ( i 4 φ )

It can be seen from (14) that the information carried by topological charge of l = −2 is obtained if omitting the last three items of (14).

In fact, the vortex beam has another feature of a fixed phase difference. This can be explored to apply in digital phase shift keying for digital communication. For instance, four different carrier phases are used to represent digital information in quaternary phase shift communication. Each carrier phase represents two bits information, as given in Table 1.

Table I
RELATIONSHIP OF CARRIER PHASE AND TWO BITS A AND B

The quaternary PSK digital signal (e4psk) is:

(15) e 4 p s k = n g ( t q T s ) cos ( ω c + φ q )

where t is time, g(t) is the signal envelope waveform, Ts is the symbol width, ωc is the carrier frequency, and φq denotes the corresponding phase of the qth symbol which has four values corresponding to the A or B modes. Two of them are positive, the other are negative, and the phase difference is π / 2. This resonant cavity with positive and negative output is very suitable for generating this beam. Literature [2929 Z. F. Lv, L. K. Lin, C. S. Lu, “Research on the Characteristics of Vortex Electromagnetic Wave Transmission in Terahertz Band,” National Conference on Microwave Millimeter Wave (ZhongCe). China, 2017.] has proven that the propagation of vortex electromagnetic waves can reach a distance of 100 km in the terahertz band, so the cavity can be used 4PSK digital communication in the THZ Band, this is also our goal in the next step.

VI. SUMMARY

In the terahertz band, the axicon-frustum basin-type Bessel resonator can be constructed using quasi-optical theory and technology. Using the principle of geometrical optics, the process of producing the non-diffraction beam in the axicon-frustum basin resonator was described simply. Applying the Fresnel-Kirchhoff diffraction integral formula, the principle of using high-order beam excitation to generate Bessel vortex beams was theoretically analyzed. Through the simulation example, we conclude that the phase distributions of the first-order mode (l = ±1) and the secondorder mode (l = ±2) of the non-diffraction vortex wave generated by the resonant cavity show the circular outlines of two sectors (φ = ±π) and four sectors (φ = ±π / 2), corresponding to two-vortex beams and four-vortex beams, respectively. The Bessel vortex beam generated in this paper may find application in the digital communication of PSK and its spatial multiplexing.
