Angular momentum and geometrical phases in tight-focused circularly polarized plane waves

Calculations for the field at the focal plane of a high numerical aperture lens focusing a circularly polarized plane wave are presented. The calculations show that the polarization of the wave front in the focal plane is space varying, and that a geometrical phase is added to the wave front. Calcul...
