Supersonic optical tunnels for Bose-Einstein condensates
We propose a method for the stabilisation of a stack of parallel vortex rings in a Bose-Einstein condensate. The method makes use of a hollow laser beam containing an optical vortex. Using realistic experimental parameters we demonstrate numerically that

Integrated Compact Optical Vortex Beam Emitters [PDF]
A Twist of Light The angular momentum of photons can be used to encode and transmit information. Cai et al. (p. 363 ) developed a method for generating and emitting controllable orbital angular momentum states of light from a reconfigurable ...

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Ring-broken optical vortices with an adjustable opening
A modified helical phase is presented in this paper. The generated vortex beams with the modified helical phases are characterized with ring-broken intensity distributions.

Vortex-vortex control in exciton-polariton condensates
Vortices are widely studied in fields ranging from nonlinear optics to magnetic systems and superconductors. A vortex carries a binary information corresponding to its topological charge, `plus' or `minus', that can be used for information storage and ...

Effect of interactions on vortices in a nonequilibrium polariton condensate [PDF]
We demonstrate the creation of vortices in a macroscopically occupied polariton state formed in a semiconductor microcavity. A weak external laser beam carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) is used to imprint a vortex on the condensate arising from the

The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Direction of energy flows at the focus of cylindrical vortex vector beams
In this work, we show analytically using the Richards-Wolf formalism and through the numerical simulation that at the sharp focus of a circularly polarized optical vortex, three energy flows occur: the direct longitudinal, reverse longitudinal, and ...

Caustics of Non-Paraxial Perfect Optical Vortices Generated by Toroidal Vortex Lenses
In this paper, we consider the comparative formation of perfect optical vortices in the non-paraxial mode using various optical elements: non-paraxial and parabolic toroidal vortex lenses, as well as a vortex axicon in combination with a parabolic lens ...
