International Conference on Applications of Optics and Photonics (3. 2017. Faro, Portugal). This research is funded by Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad (MINECO) project FIS2016-75147-C3-1-P.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.engOn the behavior of linear polarizers on highly focused radially polarized beamsjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1117/12.2271772https://www.spiedigitallibrary.orgopen access535Cylindrical vector beamsJones matrix-methodTransverse planeLayered mediaFieldsLightDistributionsPropagationOpticsDomainÓptica (Física)2209.19 Óptica Física
