摘要
We report an all-fiber laser that emits a radially polarized cylindrical vector beam (CVB) at 1 mu mbased on an intracavity acousto-optic mode converter. We efficiently generate the CVB, taking advantage of the acousto-optic coupling from the HE11 mode to the TM01 mode in a two-mode fiber. The laser can be switched from emitting a Gaussian-like beam to a radially polarized CVB. Radially polarized CVBs with modal and polarization purities > 98% and a maximum power of 65 mW were generated.
