Over the last dozen years, the area of accelerating waves has made considerable advances
not only in terms of fundamentals and experimental demonstrations, but also in connection …

A digital micromirror device (DMD) is a product of micromechanics. The DMD employs
numerous micromirrors as the actuating components to switch small portions of light on and …

Inspired by plant grafting, grafted vortex beams can be formed through grafting two or more
helical phase profiles of optical vortex beams. Recently, grafted perfect vortex beams …

In this paper we explored the propagation characteristics of rotationally-symmetric power-
exponent-phase vortex beam (RSPEPVB) through the oceanic turbulence. Based on the …

We develop the effective experimental approach to generate multi-twisted beams (MTBs)
with twisted intensity lobes by superimposing helical phases consisting of multiple …

We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of a diffractive optical element—a
generalized spiral phase plate (GSPP) with a transmission function of exp [ig (φ)], where g …

In an optical vortex (OV) field, the orbital angular momentum (OAM) distribution strongly
depends on the intensity, which results in difficulty in OAM independent modulation. To …

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 …
