Evolution of C-point singularities and polarization coverage of Poincaré–Bessel beam in self-healing process [PDF]
As a vector version of scalar Bessel beams, Poincaré–Bessel beams (PBBs) have attracted a great deal of attention due to their non-diffracting and self-healing properties as well as the presence of polarization singularities.

Experimental Mueller matrix polarimetry with full Poincaré beams and a CCD camera [PDF]
Recently, the use of full Poincaré beams for extracting the Mueller matrix of a sample has been proposed. These beams present all possible polarization states across their transverse section.

Full Poincaré Mueller Polarimetry Using a CCD Camera
A new method is proposed to perform Mueller matrix polarimetry using a Full Poincaré beam (i.e., a non-uniformly polarized beam presenting all polarization states across its section) as a parallel polarization state generator and a charge-coupled device (

Microcavity-based generation of full Poincaré beams with arbitrary skyrmion numbers
A full Poincaré (FP) beam possesses all possible optical spin states in its cross section, which constitutes an optical analog of a skyrmion. Until now FP beams have been exclusively generated using bulk optics.

Inverse Faraday effect of weakly relativistic full Poincaré beams in plasma
The inverse Faraday effect (IFE), which usually refers to the phenomenon in which a quasi-static axial magnetic field is self-generated when a circularly polarized beam propagates in a plasma, has rarely been studied for lasers with unconventional ...

Mueller Matrix Polarimetry with Invariant Polarization Pattern Beams
A wide class of nonuniformly totally polarized beams that preserve their transverse polarization pattern during paraxial propagation was studied. Beams of this type are of interest, in particular, in polarimetric techniques that use a single input beam ...

Terahertz all-silicon metasurfaces with off-axis bifocal characteristics for polarization detection
Functional devices for terahertz (THz) polarization detection in transmission mode are highly desired in integrated applications, but traditional polarization measurement systems are bulky and highly cost. The combination between all-silicon metasurfaces

Non-uniformly totally polarized beams with invariant polarization pattern in media with natural optical activity [PDF]
Non-uniformly and totally polarized (NUTP) beams have been proved to be useful in polarimetry, because they make faster and more accurate the determination of the Mueller matrix of sample.
