Performance parameters for focusing of radial polarization

Opt Lett. 2008 Mar 1;33(5):497-9. doi: 10.1364/ol.33.000497.

Abstract

Performance parameters are presented for high-aperture radially polarized focusing systems. These can be used for comparing the focusing performance of different optical systems, including the effect of pupil filters.
