In recent times, the optical-analogous skyrmions, topological quasiparticles with
sophisticated vectorial structures in light, have received an increasing amount of interest …

As we celebrate 30 years since light's orbital angular momentum (OAM) was connected to its
spatial structure, we reflect on the advances made in fundamental science and applications …

The skyrmion number of paraxial optical skyrmions can be defined solely via their
polarization singularities and associated winding numbers, using a mathematical derivation …

We propose vector modes based on inhomogeneously polarized Hermite–Gaussian (HG)
vector beams, providing complete structural conservation of the beams during propagation …

Skyrmions are topologically stable fields that cannot be smoothly deformed into any other
field configuration that differs topologically, that is, one that possesses a different integer …

Abstract Digital Micromirror Devices, extensively employed in projection displays offer rapid,
polarization-independent beam steering. However, they are constrained by …

Complex vector light modes with a spatial variant polarization distribution have become
topical of late, enabling the development of novel applications in numerous research fields …

Increasing the information capacity of communication channels is a pressing need, driven by
