Plasmonic Holographic Metasurfaces for Generation of Vector Optical Beams
In this paper, a 2-D anisotropic metasurface for generating an azimuthally polarized beam is structured with a patterned metallic layer, which is composed of a fork hologram and periodically aligned sector-shaped antennas in annular circles.

A Novel High-Resolution Optical Instrument for Imaging Oceanic Bubbles
The formation of bubbles from breaking waves has a significant effect on air–sea gas transfer and aerosol production. Detailed data in situ about the bubble populations are required to understand these processes.

High-Efficiency Plasmonic Lens Based on Archimedes-Spiral with Cross Section of an Asymmetric Slot
A high-efficiency plasmonic lens composed of a single Archimedes-spiral slot with a cross section of an asymmetric slot is proposed. By adding an auxiliary nanocavity under the primary spiral slot, unidirectional plasmonic waves can be efficiently ...

The Lissajous lens: a three-dimensional absolute optical instrument without spherical symmetry.
We propose a three dimensional optical instrument with an isotropic gradient index in which all ray trajectories form Lissajous curves. The lens represents the first absolute optical instrument discovered to exist without spherical symmetry (other than ...

The Classification of Optical Instruments [PDF]
Exception is taken to the classification of optical instruments by the signs of their powers, and an alternative division comprising five classes is proposed, based upon the separation of the four Gaussian constants into two groups according to their signs. This classification cannot be modified by the addition to the system of inverting prisms and the
