Abstract
In this Letter, we propose a non-iterative multifold strip segmentation phase method for a spatial light modulator (SLM) to generate multifocal spots of diverse beams (Airy, spiral, perfect vortex, and Bessel–Gaussian beams) in a high-numerical-aperture system, with up to 6D controllability. The method is further validated by an inverted fluorescence microscope. By adjusting the bright and dark voltage parameters of the SLM, zero-order light caused by the pixelation effect of the SLM has been successfully eliminated. We hope this research provides a more flexible and powerful approach for the rapid modulation of multi-focus light fields in the development of biomedicine and lithography.
