Skyrmions based on optical anisotropy for topological encoding
Yunqi Zhang, An Aloysius Wang, Runchen Zhang +6
The observation of skyrmions across diverse physical domains suggests that they are universal features of S-valued fields, reflecting the ubiquity of topology in the study of…
Topologically robust programmable logic arrays using light and matter skyrmions
Ruofu Liu, An Aloysius Wang, Yunqi Zhang +9
Photonic computing offers a low-power, high-bandwidth paradigm for information processing; however, the analogue nature of conventional architectures means that intrinsic noise and…
Resolving topological obstructions to vectorial structured field control
An Aloysius Wang, Yuxi Cai, Yifei Ma +2
The use of structured matter, such as optical retarders, for vectorial control is a well-established and widely employed technique in modern optics, and has driven continued advanc…
General in situ feedback control of cascaded liquid crystal spatial light modulators for structured field generation
An Aloysius Wang, Yuxi Cai, Zhenglin Li +4
Cascaded liquid crystal spatial light modulators provide a versatile strategy for the generation of structured light and matter fields, with applications including optical communic…
Rethinking conditioning in polarimetry: a new framework beyond -based metrics
Yuxi Cai, An Aloysius Wang, Chao He
A standard procedure to achieve accurate, precise, and fast polarization measurement is to choose analyzing and generating polarization states that yield an -condition numb…
Multiplexed vector beam conversion via complex structured matter
Runchen Zhang, Tade Marozsak, An Aloysius Wang +9
Structured light, in which the amplitude, phase, and polarization of an optical field are deliberately tailored in space and time, has enabled unprecedented control over optical fi…
