Our ability to generate new distributions of light has been remarkably enhanced in recent years. At the most fundamental level, these light patterns are obtained by ingeniously …
Optical phase singularities are zeros of a scalar light field. The most systematically studied class of singular fields is vortices: beams with helical wavefronts and a linear (1D) singularity …
While in linear optics the subject of structured light has been a fruitful field of both theoretical and applied research, its development in the arena of nonlinear optics has been …
The ability to design vectorial optical fields with desired properties in different media has a significant impact on many applications including microscopy, optical trapping …
Recent advances in optical beam shaping have enabled a wide class of structured lights that follow exotic trajectories, opening many routes for numerous applications. Although the …
An easily accessible approach is proposed to create structured beams with various quasicrystal structures and polarization distributions based on multi-beam interference. By …
In this article, we show that quasi-phase matching can be accomplished by manipulating one of the pump beams without any periodic poling. We analyze a simple case wherein one …
