A ray-optical Poincaré sphere for structured Gaussian beams
Miguel A Alonso, Mark R Dennis
A general family of structured Gaussian beams naturally emerges from a consideration of families of rays. These ray families, with the property that their transverse profile is inv…

Single-shot measurement of the orbital-angular-momentum spectrum of light
Girish Kulkarni, Rishabh Sahu, Omar S. Magana-Loaiza +2
The existing methods for measuring the orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) spectrum suffer from issues such as poor efficiency, strict interferometric stability requirements, and too mu…
Swings and roundabouts: Optical Poincaré spheres for polarization and Gaussian beams
Mark R Dennis, Miguel A Alonso
The connection between Poincaré spheres for polariz-ation and Gaussian beams is explored, focusing on the interpretation of elliptic polarization in terms of the isotropic 2-dimens…
Basis-neutral Hilbert-space analyzers
Lane Martin, Davood Mardani, H. Esat Kondakci +7
Interferometry is one of the central organizing principles of optics. Key to interferometry is the concept of optical delay, which facilitates spectral analysis in terms of time-ha…

Converting spin angular momentum to orbital angular momentum has been shown to be a practical and efficient method for generating optical beams carrying orbital angular momentum an…
Dynamics of Soliton Cascades in Fiber Amplifiers
F. R. Arteaga-Sierra, A. Antikainen, Govind P. Agrawal
We study numerically the formation of cascading solitons when femtosecond optical pulses are launched into a fiber amplifier with less energy than required to form a soliton of equ…
Polarization shaping for control of nonlinear propagation
Frédéric Bouchard, Hugo Larocque, Alison M. Yao +6
We study the nonlinear optical propagation of two different classes of space-varying polarized light beams -- radially symmetric vector beams and Poincaré beams with lemon and star…
Chip-scale cavity optomechanics in lithium niobate
Wei C. Jiang, Qiang Lin
We develop a chip-scale cavity optomechanical system in single-crystal lithium niobate that exhibits high optical quality factors and a large frequency-quality product as high as $…
Implications of a zero-nonlinearity wavelength in optical fibers doped with silver nanoparticles
