With different input polarization we can selectively excite different combinations of modes from the LP11 group. We propose to show how to transform the output beam into a cylindrical vector beam in free-space through various polarization transformations.EnglishOptical fiberLaguerre-Gaussian beamBessel-Gauss beamCylindrical vector beamOptical tweezersOptical vortexArticle10.1016/j.optcom.2004.03.0801873-0310
