This work focuses on the generation of far-field super-resolved pure-azimuthal focal field based on the fast Fourier transform. A self-designed differential filter is first pioneered to robustly reconfigure a doughnut-shaped azimuthal focal field into a bright one with a sub-wavelength lateral scale (0.392{lambda}), which offers a 27.3% reduction ratio relative to that of tightly focused azimuthal polarization modulated by a spiral phase plate. By further uniting the versatile differential filter with spatially shifted beam approach, in addition to allowing for an extremely sharper focal spot, whose size is in turn reduced to 0.228{lambda} and 0.286{lambda} in the transverse as well as axial directions, the parasitic sidelobes are also lowered to an inessential level (< 20%), thereby enabling an excellent three-dimensional deep-subwavelength focal field ({lambda}3/128). The relevant phase profiles are further exhibited to unravel the annihilation of field singularity and locally linear (i.e. azimuthal) polarization. Our scheme opens a promising route toward efficiently steer and tailor the redistribution of the focal field.
