Optical Skyrmions with Tunable or Reconfigurable Topology Using Spin‐Decoupled Metaoptics

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The work introduces advanced optical elements capable of generating and dynamically reconfiguring complex light patterns known as optical skyrmions. By precisely shaping light polarization at the nanoscale, a single engineered metasurface can generate and manipulate robust and tunable polarization textures in an efficient and scalable way.

Multispectral Concentric Grafted Perfect Vector Vortex Beam

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Multispectral structured light offers powerful opportunities for increasing information capacity. A multispectral concentric grafted perfect vector vortex beam is proposed to engineer topological charges and polarization. A metasurface can graft different perfect vector vortex beams across concentric spatial regions and extend this concept to ...

Interleaved Diffractive Networks for Information Transfer Through Random Diffusers

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work presents a cascaded diffractive optical network that enables information transfer through random, unknown diffusers using passive, interleaved structured layers that mitigate scattering without digital computation. A hybrid optical‐digital version further improves robustness and reconstruction fidelity under distortions, with both simulations
