Engineering wavefronts with machine learned structured polarization

Sai Nikhilesh Murty Kottapalli, Alexander Song, Peer Fischer

Optical approaches for wavefront shaping traditionally rely on phase modulation through holographic techniques. Shaping the phase determines a wave's diffraction and hence its inte…

Observation of the Faraday effect via beam deflection in a longitudinal magnetic field

Ambarish Ghosh, Peer Fischer

We report the observation of the magnetic field induced circular differential deflection of light at the interface of a Faraday medium. The difference in the angles of refraction o…

Chiral molecules split light: Reflection and refraction in a chiral liquid

Ambarish Ghosh, Peer Fischer

A light beam changes direction as it enters a liquid at an angle from another medium, such as air. Should the liquid contain molecules that lack mirror symmetry, then it has been p…

A right-handed isotropic medium with a negative refractive index

Yi-Fan Chen, Peer Fischer, Frank W. Wise

The sign of the refractive index of any medium is soley determined by the requirement that the propagation of an electromagnetic wave obeys Einstein causality. Our analysis shows t…

A new chiral electro-optic effect: Sum-frequency generation from optically active liquids in the presence of a dc electric field

P. Fischer, K. Beckwitt, A. D. Buckingham +2

We report the observation of sum-frequency signals that depend linearly on an applied electrostatic field and that change sign with the handedness of an optically active solution.…
