Acoustic vortices with subwavelength dimensions and tunable topological charge are theoretically and experimentally synthesized at distances far beyond the Rayleigh diffraction length of the source, using self-demodulation. A dual helical acoustic source is used to generate two primary confocal vortex beams at different frequencies and different topological charges. As a consequence of the conservation of angular momentum during nonlinear wave mixing, a self-demodulated vortex beam at the difference frequency emerges, keeping the spatial features of the primary vortex beams and a topological charge that is the difference of their topological charges. We report subdiffractive vortices the characteristic size of which is 18 times smaller than its wavelength at a distance 2.8 times the Rayleigh diffraction length. The generation and focusing of subwavelength vortices paves the way for long-range communication, biomedical, and wave-matter interaction applications.
