Paraxial and nonparaxial polynomial beams and the analytic approach to propagation
Mark R Dennis, Joerg B Goette, Robert P King +2
We construct solutions of the paraxial and Helmholtz equations which are polynomials in their spatial variables. These are derived explicitly using the angular spectrum method and…

Spin-to-orbital angular momentum conversion in focusing, scattering, and imaging systems
K. Y. Bliokh, E. A. Ostrovskaya, M. A. Alonso +3
We present a general theory of spin-to-orbital angular momentum (AM) conversion of light in focusing, scattering, and imaging optical systems. Our theory employs universal geometri…
