Abstract

We report and fabricate a novel, to our knowledge, vortex beam generator called elliptical spiral zone plate (ESZP) using direct laser writing (DLW), which can generate the elliptical perfect vortex beam (EPVB). It is shown that the radius of the EPVB can be adjusted by tuning the control parameters of the ESZP. It is verified through the interference experiment and the Hermitian-Gaussian light field that the topological charge of the EPVB is consistent with the design. In addition, we integrate the ESZP at the tip of the single-mode fiber. Our work may set the scene for applications in fiber optical tweezers, optical communications, and integrated optics.
