Wavelength-adaptive spin-orbit orbital angular momentum management in three-wave mixing
Kiki Dekkers, Mwezi Koni, Vagharshak Hakobyan +5
Here we propose the use of an adjustable liquid crystal spin-orbit device to shape bi-colour structured light to create bimodal states. We demonstrate the proof-of-principle for tw…

Enhanced fidelity in nonlinear structured light by virtual light-based apertures
Sachleen Singh, Isaac Nape, Andrew Forbes
Tailoring the degrees of freedom (DoF) of light for a desired purpose, so-called structured light, has delivered numerous advances over the past decade, ranging from communications…

A Variational Approach to Learning Photonic Unitary Operators
Hadrian Bezuidenhout, Mwezi Koni, Jonathan Leach +3
Structured light, light tailored in its internal degrees of freedom, has become topical in numerous quantum and classical information processing protocols. In this work, we harness…
