Geometric representation of higher-order optical modes
Claire Cisowski
An octant representation of higher-order optical modes that includes Laguerre-Gaussian and Hermite-Gaussian modes is presented. The octant picture captures the high-dimensional nat…

Storage and retrieval of optical skyrmions with topological characteristics
Jinwen Wang, Xin Yang, Yun Chen +10
Optical skyrmions are topological structures of light whose defining property, the skyrmion number, is robust against perturbations. This makes them attractive for applications in…

Algorithmic Discovery of Casimir-Polder forces: Repulsion in the Ground State
Romuald Kilianski, Claire M. Cisowski, Robert Bennett
We present a general-purpose algorithm for automatic production of a structure that induces a desired Casimir-Polder force. As a demonstration of the capability and wide applicabil…
