Vector Optical Beam with Controllable Variation of Polarization during Propagation in Free Space: A Review

The vector optical beam with longitudinally varying polarization during propagation in free space has attracted significant attention in recent years. Compared with traditional vector optical beams with inhomogeneous distribution of polarization in the transverse plane, manipulating the longitudinal...
