Abstract
The invention provides a method and a system for generating a robust higher-order Poincaré sphere polarization state. The method includes: loading vortex phases into fully coherent vector beams for modulating them into left- and right-handed circularly polarized modes in a Poincaré sphere; synthesizing the left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized modes into a vector polarized light beam on the Poincaré sphere, and generating a polarization matrix of the Poincaré sphere; reducing the degree of spatial coherence of the polarized light, performing shaping to obtain a random electromagnetic beam, and simultaneously extracting polarization information in the polarization matrix and transferring the polarization information into a spatial correlation tensor of the random electromagnetic beam; and transmitting the random electromagnetic beam to a far field where the polarization information is transferred from the spatial correlation tensor into a polarization matrix of the random electromagnetic beam, to obtain a robust higher-order Poincaré sphere polarization state.
