Spatiotemporal steering of non-diffracting wavepackets

Haiwen Wang, Cheng Guo, Shanhui Fan

We study the dynamics of space-time non-diffracting wavepackets, commonly known as light bullets, in a spatiotemporally varying medium. We show that by spatiotemporal refraction, a…

Shaping space-time wavepackets beyond the paraxial limit using a dispersion magnifier

Dongha Kim, Cheng Guo, Peter B. Catrysse +1

Space-time wavepackets (STWPs) have received significant attention since they can propagate in free space at arbitrary group velocity without dispersion and diffraction. However, a…
