Adaptive optics are becoming a valuable tool for laser processing, providing enhanced
functionality and flexibility for a range of systems. Using a single adaptive element, it is …

Ultrafast laser 3D lithography based on non-linear light–matter interactions, widely known as
multi-photon lithography (MPL), offers unrivaled precision rapid prototyping and flexible …

In recent years, vortex beams with orbital angular momentum (OAM) have attracted more
and more attention. The wavefront of the OAM beams is helical, the intensity at the center of …

The combination of materials with targeted optical properties and of complex, 3D
architectures, which can be nowadays obtained by additive manufacturing, opens …

Abstract We introduce axisymmetric Airy-Gaussian vortex beams in a model of an optical
system based on the (2+ 1)-dimensional fractional Schrödinger equation (FSE) …

Biofabrication is a fast-evolving and multi-disciplinary field, harnessing the benefits and
capabilities of additive manufacturing and complementary bioassembly techniques at the …

By employing the angular spectrum representation, we successfully derive the partial-wave
expansion coefficients of the circular Airy beams (CABs) with different polarizations, based …

Circular Airyprime beam (CAPB) is a new kind of abruptly autofocusing beam introduced
recently [Opt. Express, 30, 3804 (2022)], which possesses much stronger autofocusing …

A type of circular Pearcey-like vortex beam (CPLVB) is introduced numerically and
experimentally, combining the properties of self-acceleration and abruptly autofocusing in …
