摘要：
We develop a hybrid Poincarésphere to characterize the so-called full Poincarébeam with any polarization geometry. The two eigenstates of the hybrid Poincarésphere are defined as a fundamental-mode Gaussian beam and a Laguerre-Gaussian beam. We further establish a robust and efficient experimental setup to generate any desired full Poincarébeam on the hybrid Poincarésphere via modulating the incident polarization state of light. Our research provides an alternative way for describing and manipulating the full Poincarébeam and an effective method to con...
