Polarization, the path traced by light's electric field vector, appears in all areas of optics. In
recent decades, various technologies have enabled the precise control of light's polarization …

Polarization plays a key role in science; hence its versatile manipulation is crucial. Existing
polarization optics, however, can only manipulate polarization in a single transverse plane …

Phase-gradient metasurfaces (PGMs) constitute an efficient platform for deflection of a beam
in a desired direction. According to the generalized Snell's law, the direction of the …

The constituent elements of metasurfaces may be designed with explicit polarization
dependence, making metasurfaces a fascinating platform for new polarization optics. In this …

Controlled synthesis of optical fields having nonuniform polarization distributions presents a
challenging task. Here, a universal polarization transformer is demonstrated that can …

We have demonstrated a holographic grating, the far-field diffraction pattern of which is a
perfect optical vortex (POV) array. The diffraction order, as well as the topological charge of …

Multicasting is necessary when distributing signals between multiple users. In this Letter, we
demonstrate an orbital angular momentum (OAM) encoding-based free-space one-to-many …

Stokes polarimetry (SP) is a powerful technique that enables spatial reconstruction of the
state of polarization (SoP) of a light beam using only intensity measurements. A given SoP is …

When light scatters off an object, its polarization, in general, changes—a transformation
described by the object's Mueller matrix. Mueller matrix imaging is an important technique in …

We present a proof of concept for a vector beam polarization state spectrum analyzer based
on the combination of a polarization diffraction grating (PDG) and an encoded harmonic q …
