Near to far field transformation

Research on the optical far field of Dirac vortex topological cavities

Introduction

MATLAB class Field2D supports the some operations on near to far field transformation.

There are a few public properties in Field2D:

Properties x, y, nx, ny are matrices of the same size to store the data of near field. x and y are the coordinate mesh while nx and ny are the x- and y-components of the near field.
Properties kx, ky, fx, fy are matrices of the same size to store the data of far field. fx and fy are x- and y-components of far field .Different with near field, the coordinate of far field is indicated by the wave vector kx and ky.
Properties freq0, lambda0, k0 are the frequency, wavelength, wave vectore in vacuum respectively.

Methods Declaration

obj = Field2D(x_in, y_in, fx_in, fy_in, freq, unit)

The constructor accepts the input data of near field to assign a class.

x_in: the x-coordinate of near field. Must be a n-vector.
y_in: the y-coordinate of near field. Must be a n-vector.
fx_in: the x-component of near field. Must be a n-vector.
fy_in: the y-component of near field. Must be a n-vector.
freq: the frequency of the input near field. Must be a real number.
unit: the unit of x- and y-coordinate. Valid values are 'm', 'cm', 'mm', 'um', 'nm', 'a'.

obj = obj.getFarFieldCPU({kx, ky})
obj = obj.getFarFieldCPU({kx, ky}, CoreNumber)
obj = obj.getFarFieldCPU(farGridNumber)
obj = obj.getFarFieldCPU(farGridNumber, CoreNumber)

The method getFarFieldCPU(-) uses CPU to calculate parallelly and save the far field of the near field store in class obj.

{kx, ky}: this is a single input variable, which is a cell in MATLAB. The first element is a n-vector contains the value of kx and the second element is the same.
farGridNumber: the number of grids of far field. It is no different with kx=ky=linspace(-1,1,farGridNumber).
CoreNumber: the CPU core number of parallel computation. Default is the half of total CPU core.

This method will first check if a parallel pool is running or not. if not, this method will start a parallel pool with size of CoreNumber.

obj = obj.getFarFieldGPU(fargrid)
obj = obj.getFarFieldGPU({kx, ky})

The method getFarFieldGPU(-) uses GPU to compute and will return the same result as getFarFieldCPU(-). getFarFieldGPU(-) is recommended to use because of its high efficiency.

obj.plotNearField()
obj.plotNearField(colormap)
s = obj.plotNearField(-)

The method plotNearField(-) plots the near field power distribution abs(obj.nx).^2+abs(obj.ny).^2, and returns a image object of class Patch.

colormap: the colormap. Default is parula

obj.plotFarField(quiverSize,density,range)
s = obj.plotFarField(-)

The method plotFarField(-) plots the far field power distribution P=abs(obj.fx).^2+abs(obj.fy).^2, and returns a image object of class Patch. This method also plots the polarization of the far field in green line.

quiverSize: this factor determines size of polarization marks (green line). quiverSize=1 is recommended.
density: this factor determines the density of polarization marks. This factor must be an interger (1,2,3...). A greater density indicates a smaller marker density. density=2 is recommended
range: this factor determines the ploting range of polarization marks. The marks will be plotted in the area where the internsity P<Pmax*range. A smaller range indicates a bigger marked area. range=0.1 is recommended.

How to use

First, load data from file and use the constructor to assign an object field

clear
data = readmatrix('near-field-data.csv');
x_in = data(:,1);
y_in = data(:,1);
Ex_in = real(data(:,3));
Ey_in = real(data(:,4));
f0 = 3.0454e14;
field = Field2D(x_in, y_in, Ex_in, Ey_in, f0, 'nm');

Then use getFarFieldGPU(-) to calculate the far field

field = field.getFarFieldGPU(101);

Finally, use plotFarField(-) to plot the far field power distribution.

figure
s = field.plotFarField(1,2,0.1);
