Temporal Branched Flow of Light

Weifeng Ding, Chaokai Yang, Zhaoying Wang +1

Branched flow of light arises when spatially correlated disorder folds families of rays into caustics. Here, we demonstrate a temporal analog in the retarded-time coordinate of an…

Geometric spin Hall effect of spatiotemporal optical vortices

Chaokai Yang, Weifeng Ding, Zhaoying Wang

The geometric spin Hall effect of light (GSHEL), which is associated with nonzero transverse angular momentum, has been demonstrated to occur without the need for light-matter inte…

"Classical" coherent state generated by curved surface

Weifeng Ding, Zhaoying Wang

Analogous coherent states are deduced from classical optical fields on curved surface in this paper. The Gaussian laser beam, as a fundamental mode, cannot be adequately simulated…

Laser propagation in Rindler accelerated reference frame based on matrix optics

Weifeng Ding, Zhaoying Wang

The Rindler spacetime describing a series of accelerating observers is Ricci flat, but it still has novel optical effects. In the case of WKB approximation, we derive the light geo…

The hollow Gaussian beam propagation on curved surface based on matrix optics method

Weifeng Ding, Zhaoying Wang

In this paper, ABCD matrix is introduced to study the paraxial transmission of light on a constant gaussian curvature surface (CGCS), which is the first time to our knowledge. It i…
