Probing the modal characteristics of novel beam shapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this thesis, an investigation into the modal characteristics of novel beam shapes is presented. Sculpting the phase profile of a Gaussian beam can result in the generation of a beam with unique properties.

Abruptly autofocusing vortex beams

open access: yesOptics Express, 2012
We generate abruptly autofocusing beams that produce vortices at the focus. We give explicit equations for the phase-only Fourier masks that generate these beams including explanations for controlling the focal distance and numerical aperture. We show experimental results for the focal distance, the vortex pattern and show that the diameter of the ...

Polygonal Vortex Beams [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
We originally exploit the vortex beams with patterns of closed polygons [namely, polygonal vortex beams (PVBs)] generated by a quasi-frequency-degenerate (QFD) Yb:CALGO laser resonator with astigmatic transformation. The PVBs with peculiar patterns of triangular, square, and parallelogram shapes carrying large orbital angular momentums (OAMs) are ...

Airy Transform of the New Power-Exponent-Phase Vortex Beam

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
A new power-exponent-phase vortex beam with nonlinear phase winding has shown flexible control freedom compared with conventional vortex beams. In order to further enrich the modulation freedom and expand the ability of self-healing to meet current ...

Research on Blind Area Suppression Technology for Vortex Beam Detection [PDF]

open access: yesHangkong bingqi
To address the problem of far-target detection blind areas caused by the dark hollow regions in the propagation direction of vortex beams, a method based on the coherent synthesis of vortex superposition using a ring-beam array is proposed.

Optical vortex braiding with Bessel beams

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2020
We propose the braiding of optical vortices in a laser beam with more than 2 π rotation by superposing Bessel modes with a plane wave. We experimentally demonstrate this by using a Bessel–Gaussian beam and a coaxial Gaussian, and we present measurements of three complete braids. The amount of braiding is fundamentally limited only

Distributed lock-in drives broadband vortex-induced vibrations of a long flexible cylinder in shear flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A slender flexible body immersed in sheared cross-flow may exhibit vortex-induced vibrations (VIVs) involving a wide range of excited frequencies and structural wavenumbers.

Manipulation of Energy Flow with X-Type Vortex

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
In this study, a new method for manipulating energy flow in a 3D vector field is proposed. In this method, an azimuthally-polarized beam with a noncanonical vortex, the X-type vortex, is focused in a high-numerical aperture system.

Pulsed polarized vortex beam enabled by metafiber lasers

open access: yesPhotoniX
Pulsed polarized vortex beams, a special form of structured light, are generated by tailoring the light beam spatiotemporally and witness the growing application demands in nonlinear optics such as ultrafast laser processing and surface plasma excitation.
