Time diffraction of optical helicity
Alex J. Vernon, Jingyi Wu, Anton Y. Bykov +4
If in a classic double-slit interference experiment the light that passes though one slit is in an orthogonal polarisation state to that of the second slit, no visible interference…
Electromagnetic symmetry dislocations
Alex J. Vernon, Sebastian Golat, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño
Singular optics aims to understand and manipulate light's topological defects, pioneered by the discovery that phase vortex lines, strands of destructive interference, naturally oc…
Longitudinal field controls vector vortex beams in anisotropic epsilon-near-zero metamaterials
Vittorio Aita, Diane J. Roth, Anastasiia Zaleska +5
Structured light plays an important role in metrology, optical trapping and manipulation, communications, quantum technologies, nonlinear optics and provides a rich playground for…
Radiation forces and torques in optics and acoustics
Ivan Toftul, Sebastian Golat, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño +3
The mechanical action of various kinds of waves has been recognized for several centuries. The first tide of scientific interest in wave-induced forces and torques emerged at the t…
Mixing Skyrmions and Merons in Topological Quasicrystals of Evanescent Optical Field
Henry J. Putley, Bryn Davies, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño +2
Photonic skyrmion and meron lattices are structured light fields with topologically protected textures, analogous to magnetic skyrmions and merons. Here, we report the theoretical…
Longitudinal chiral forces in photonic integrated waveguides to separate particles with realistically small chirality
Josep Martínez-Romeu, Iago Diez, Sebastian Golat +2
Chiral optical forces exhibit opposite signs for the two enantiomeric versions of a chiral molecule or particle. If large enough, these forces might be able to separate enantiomers…
The electromagnetic symmetry sphere: a framework for energy, momentum, spin and other electromagnetic quantities
Sebastian Golat, Alex J. Vernon, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño
Electromagnetic quantities such as energy density, momentum, spin, and helicity bring meaning and intuition to electromagnetism and possess intricate interrelations, particularly p…
Propagation of focused scalar and vector vortex beams in anisotropic media: A semi-analytical approach
Vittorio Aita, Mykyta Shevchenko, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño +1
In the field of structured light, the study of optical vortices and their vectorial extension--vectorial vortex beams--has garnered substantial interest due to their unique phase a…
