Abstract
Focusing properties of cylindrically polarized annular multi gaussian beam with high numerical aperture lens system is investigated theoretically by vector diffraction theory. Results show that intensity distribution in focal region can be tailored considerably by appropriately adjusting the polarization angle. Peak-centered, donut and flattop focal shapes with extended focal depth, potentially useful in optical tweezers, material processing and laser printing can be obtained using this technique.
