Reply to comment on "Observation of subluminal twisted light in vacuum"
Frédéric Bouchard, Robert W. Boyd, Ebrahim Karimi
Recently, we showed experimentally that light carrying orbital angular momentum experiences a slight subluminality under free-space propagation [1]. We thank Saari [2] for pointing…
Arbitrary optical wavefront shaping via spin-to-orbit coupling
Hugo Larocque, Jérémie Gagnon-Bischoff, Frédéric Bouchard +4
Converting spin angular momentum to orbital angular momentum has been shown to be a practical and efficient method for generating optical beams carrying orbital angular momentum an…
Polarization shaping for control of nonlinear propagation
Frédéric Bouchard, Hugo Larocque, Alison M. Yao +6
We study the nonlinear optical propagation of two different classes of space-varying polarized light beams -- radially symmetric vector beams and Poincaré beams with lemon and star…
Tighter spots of light with superposed orbital angular momentum beams
Paweł Woźniak, Peter Banzer, Frédéric Bouchard +3
The possibility of focusing light to an ever tighter spot has important implications for many applications and fields of optics research, such as nano-optics and plasmonics, laser-…
