Einstein beams and the diffractive aspect of gravitationally-lensed light

Valeria Rodriguez-Fajardo, Thao P. Nguyen, Kiyan S. Hocek +2

The study of light lensed by cosmic matter has yielded much information about astrophysical questions. Observations are explained using geometrical optics following a ray-based des…

An Easier-To-Align Hong-Ou-Mandel Interference Demonstration

Nicholas S. DiBrita, Enrique J. Galvez

The Hong-Ou-Mandel interference experiment is a fundamental demonstration of nonclassical interference and a basis for many investigations of quantum information. This experiment i…

Poincaré Bessel Beams: Structure and Propagation

Brianna M. Holmes, Enrique J. Galvez

Non-separable superpositions of polarization and spatial modes in Gaussian beams have shown rich patterns of spatially-variable polarization encoded in the transverse mode of the l…

Crown-structured optical harmonics

David L. Andrews, Henryk Haniewicz, Enrique J. Galvez

At levels of laser intensity below threshold for multiphoton ionization, the parametric generation of optical harmonics in gases and other isotropic media is subject to selection r…

Multitwist Möbius Strips and Twisted Ribbons in the Polarization of Paraxial Light Beams

Enrique J. Galvez, Ishir Dutta, Kory Beach +3

The polarization of light can exhibit unusual features when singular optical beams are involved. In 3-dimensional polarized random media the polarization orientation around singula…
