Abstract

The focal field of a solid immersion lens (SIL) system with a high-pass angular spectrum filter is calculated by using a vector method. Numerical results show that for a radially (azimuthally) polarized input field, a high-pass angular spectrum filter can reduce the light-spot (dark-spot) size of the SIL system. For a linearly polarized input field, however, the focal field cannot be optimized and the optical storage density of the SIL system cannot be improved by using a simple high-pass filter, either.
