Spin-orbit-induced gauge field and spin Hall effects in quasi-paraxial fluids of light
Caroline Stier, Nicolas Cherroret
We show that quasi-paraxial fluids of light propagating in nonlinear Kerr media naturally experience an effective gauge field arising from the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction of l…
Dynamical phase transition of light in time-varying nonlinear dispersive media
Nicolas Cherroret
We demonstrate the existence of a prethermal dynamical phase transition (DPT) for fluctuating optical beams propagating in nonlinear dispersive media. The DPT can be probed by sudd…
Resonant Spin Hall Effect of Light in Random Photonic Arrays
Federico Carlini, Nicolas Cherroret
It has been recently shown that the coherent component of light propagating in transversally disordered media, the so-called coherent mode, exhibits an optical spin Hall effect (SH…
Time Translation Symmetry Breaking in an Isolated Spin-Orbit-Coupled Fluid of Light
Giovanni I. Martone, Nicolas Cherroret
We study the interplay between intrinsic spin-orbit coupling and nonlinear photon-photon interactions in a nonparaxial, elliptically polarized fluid of light propagating in a bulk…
Tailoring propagation of light via spin-orbit interactions in correlated disorder
Federico Carlini, Nicolas Cherroret
Based on the fundamental interplay between spatial wavefronts and polarization degrees of freedom, spin-orbit interactions (SOI) of light constitute a novel tool for optical contro…
Spin-orbit-coupled fluids of light in bulk nonlinear media
Giovanni I. Martone, Tom Bienaimé, Nicolas Cherroret
We show that nonparaxial polarized light beams propagating in a bulk nonlinear Kerr medium naturally exhibit a coupling between the motional and the polarization degrees of freedom…
