Improved focusing with Hypergeometric-Gaussian type-II optical modes
Ebrahim Karimi, Bruno Piccirillo, Lorenzo Marrucci +1
We present a novel family of paraxial optical beams having a confluent hypergeometric transverse profile, which we name hypergeometric Gauss modes of type-II (HyGG-II). These modes…
Quantum information transfer from spin to orbital angular momentum of photons
Eleonora Nagali, Fabio Sciarrino, Francesco De Martini +4
The optical "spin-orbit" coupling occurring in a suitably patterned nonuniform birefringent plate known as `q-plate' allows entangling the polarization of a single photon with its…
Light propagation in a birefringent plates with topological charge
Ebrahim Karimi, Bruno Piccirillo, Lorenzo Marrucci +1
We calculated the Fresnel paraxial propagator in a birefringent plate having topological charge at its center, named "-plate". We studied the change of the beam transverse p…
Mapping of shape invariant potentials by the point canonical transformation
M. R. Setare, E. Karimi
In this paper by using the method of point canonical transformation we find that the Coulomb and Kratzer potentials can be mapped to the Morse potential. Then we show that the Pösc…
