%0 Journal Article %A Maluenda, David %A Carnicer, Artur %A Jubells, Ignasi %A Martínez Herrero, Rosario %T On the behavior of linear polarizers on highly focused radially polarized beams %D 2017 %@ 0277-786X %U https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/18240 %X In this communication we analyze the light field distribution of a highly focused radially polarized beam when passes through a linear polarizer. The polarizer is modeled as a plane-parallel uniaxial absorbing medium with the optical axis parallel to the plate surfaces of the polarizer. Analytical results and numerical calculations are provided. %~
