Diffraction-free natural optical skyrmions and their subwavelength confinement around vortices

Nilo Mata-Cervera, Deepak K. Sharma, Ramon Paniagua-Dominguez +2

Diffraction causes waves to spread out as they propagate freely. The tighter the lateral confinement, the faster the spreading. Past research on how to suppress diffraction has bee…

Optical Skyrmions of Vortex Darkness

Nilo Mata-Cervera, Deepak K. Sharma, Yijie Shen +2

We disclose the existence of a type of optical skyrmion, Gauss-Stokes (GS) skyrmions, that is naturally present in an optical vortex around its phase singularity. Contrary to previ…
