<正>Based on vectorial Debye theory,the focusing properties of partially polarized vortex beam by high numerical aperture Presnel zone plate are investigated.The effects of the numerical apertures of and the phase difference of binary phase Presnel zone plates,the topological charge of vortex beam and the degree of polarization of incident beam on the intensity distribution and degree of coherence in the focal plane are investigated in detail.It is shown that elliptical light spots and the flat top beam can be obtained by selecting certain parameters.Studies of degree of coherence reveal that the degree of coherence between x and y components of the electric field,which is zero in the source plane,is improved in the focal plane for vortex beam,but it is hardly changed for the nonvortex beam.It is also proved that any two of the three electric field components E_x,E_y and E_z are completely coherent everywhere in the focal region if the incident light beam is linearly polarized.
