Analysis of Hybrid Vector Beams Generated with a Detuned Q-Plate

We use a tunable commercial liquid-crystal device tuned to a quarter-wave retardance to study the generation and dynamics of different types of hybrid vector beams. The standard situation where the q-plate is illuminated by a Gaussian beam is compared with other cases where the input beam is a vorte...
