Role of a Quarter-Wave Plate in Confocal Microscopy: Signature of Spin-Orbit Interactions
Wenze Lan, Anton Lögl, Meryem Benelajla +3
Spin-orbit interactions of light couple polarization and spatial degrees of freedom, underpinning phenomena such as the spin Hall effect of light. Although widely explored at inter…

The physical origins of extreme cross-polarization extinction in confocal microscopy
Meryem Benelajla, Elena Kammann, Bernhard Urbaszek +1
Confocal microscopy is an essential imaging tool for biological systems, in solid-state physics and nano-photonics. Using confocal microscopes allows performing resonant fluorescen…
