Abruptly autofocusing vortex beams
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 ...

Propagation and Transformation of Vortexes in Linear and Nonlinear Radio-Photon Systems
The article is devoted to issues related to the propagation and transformation of vortexes in the optical range of frequency. Within the framework of the traditional and modified model of slowly varying envelope approximation (SVEA), the process of ...

Optical vortex braiding with Bessel beams
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

Probing the modal characteristics of novel beam shapes [PDF]
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.

Conical Emission Induced by the Filamentation of Femtosecond Vortex Beams in Water
Conical emission is a typical nonlinear phenomenon that occurs during the filamentation of femtosecond laser pulses in transparent media. In this work, the conical emission induced by two kinds of typical vortex beams (i.e., Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) and ...

Second-Harmonic Generation of the Vortex Beams with Integer and Fractional Topological Charges
The single-pass second-harmonic generation (SHG) of a vortex beam under low fundamental wave depletion is systematically studied. Vortex modes at 1064 nm with integer topological charges from ±1 to ±9 and fractional ones at ±0.75 are generated by ...

Controlled Generation and Manipulation of Vortex Dipoles in a Bose-Einstein Condensate
We propose methods to generate and manipulate vortex dipoles in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate using Gaussian beams of red- or blue-detuned laser. Vortex dipoles with controlled velocities are shown to be created and launched by a red-detuned beam ...

Interaction between anomalous vortex beams in nonlocal media
In this paper, the interactional behaviors of anomalous vortex beams in highly nonlocal media are investigated. An analytical expression describing the interaction is given, and some numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the interactional ...
