Vorticity and the birth of optical vortices

open access: yes, 2019
We exploit the vorticity, familiar from fluid mechanics and the theory of superfluids, as a tool to track the birth and subsequent development of optical vortices at a spiral phase plate.

Optical vortices at Fano resonances

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2012
We study the transmission properties of a one-dimensional array with intersite side-coupled defect and demonstrate that, as the system undergoes sharp Fano resonance, it exhibits geometry-induced vorticity of the energy flux. The optical vortex inverts its handedness at the Fano resonance, revealing a strong link between two phenomena, both being of ...

Structured Optical Toroidal Vortices with Rotational Symmetry

open access: yesPhotonics
Toroidal vortices, as intriguing topological structures, play a fundamental role across a wide range of physical fields. In this study, we theoretically propose a family of structured optical toroidal vortices as generalized forms of toroidal vortices in

Adaptive Optics and Optical Vortices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The achievement of minimal angular divergence of a laser beam is one of the most impor‐ tant problems in laser physics since many laser applications demand extreme concentration of radiation. Under the beam formation in the laser oscillator or amplifier with optically in‐ homogeneous gain medium and optical elements, the divergence usually exceeds the ...

Terawatt-Class Few-Cycle Short-Wave Infrared Vortex Laser

open access: yesUltrafast Science, 2023
As a driving source for many nonlinear vortex phenomena, such as the generation of isolated attosecond optical vortices, terahertz vortices, etc., terawatt-class few-cycle short-wave infrared vortex lasers are now attracting widespread attention. However,

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Polarization structure of optical vortices in inclined Laguerre-Gaussian beams passed through a uniaxial crystal

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика
The work shows that in linearly polarized Laguerre-Gaussian beams passing through an anisotropic medium at an angle to the optical axis of the crystal, the distribution of optical vortices is devoid of axial symmetry. It is shown that the trajectories of

Orbital Angular Momentum generation in infrared with Holographic Optical Elements [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Optical vortices are of interest in the infrared range for applications in the fields of optical fiber communications and femtosecond laser pulses. Among the current techniques used to generate optical vortices, the use of a Spatial Light Modulator (SLM)

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Spatiotemporal optical vortex reconnections of loop vortices

open access: yesNanophotonics
Reconnections of spatiotemporal optical vortices have been shown to occur between line vortices. Here, we show that reconnections also occur between spatiotemporal loop vortices in optical waves. As optical loop vortices propagate in a media with spatial
