Abstract
En 中文
Apart from the polarization and spatial mode, the degree of coherence (DoC), as a new degree of freedom (DoF), has actuated the control of structured optical fields beyond into a higher dimension. However, the control of DoC mainly focuses on the spatial coherence, and so far, there are no reports on the modulation of temporal coherence of the structured light. Here, a temporal coherence-tailorable vector fiber source is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. With a two-mode long-period fiber grating and polarization control, switchable transverse-mode outputs including azimuthally polarized mode TE01 and radially polarized mode TM01 are performed in an all-fiber compact regime. Benefitting from a tunable superfluorescent fiber source as the illumination of spatial mode control, the temporal coherence and the operating wavelength of vector beams can be simultaneously modulated. This work may not only advance a considerable protocol for creating and manipulating high-dimensional vectorial optical field, but also open up a promising avenue for potential applications in optical communication, high-resolution imaging, and particle trapping.
