Towards digital phantoms: emulating scattering with a spatial light modulator
Kelsey Everts, Cade Peters, Andrew Forbes
The distortion of light's degrees of freedom when passing through complex random media is of great interest across a diversity of fields, e.g., scattering in biological studies. Em…
Particle-like topologies of light in turbulent complex media
Danilo Gomes Pires, Vasilios Cocotos, Cade Peters +2
The basic building blocks of many forms of optical topologies are particle-like singularities in phase and polarisation, giving rise to lines of darkness that weave complex threads…
Topological robustness of optical skyrmions through a real-world free-space link
Cade Peters, Vagharshak Hakobyan, Alice Drozdov +3
Structured light offers a promising solution for the increasing data demands of modern optical networks, opening up new degrees of freedom that can be leveraged for greater channel…
Deep diffractive optical neural networks for detecting Skyrmionic topologies of light
Hadrian Bezuidenhout, Cade Peters, Ram Kumar +2
Optical Skyrmions are topological forms of structured light with the potential of an infinite encoding alphabet that is immune to disturbance. This attractive prospect is hindered…
Topological robustness of classical and quantum optical skyrmions in atmospheric turbulence
Zhenyu Guo, Cade Peters, Nilo Mata-Cervera +5
The degradation of classical and quantum structured light induced by complex media constitutes a critical barrier to its practical implementation in a range of applications, from c…
Seeing through randomness with topological light
Cade Peters, Kelsey Everts, Tatjana Kleine +2
Transmitting structured light robustly through complex random media is crucial in many applications, from sensing to communication. Unfortunately, the spatial structure of light is…
