Diffraction‐Free Natural Optical Skyrmions and Their Subwavelength Confinement Around Vortices
ABSTRACT Diffraction causes waves to spread out as they propagate freely. The tighter the lateral confinement, the faster the spreading. Past research on how to suppress diffraction has been based on wave engineering and has led so far to idealized waves that, in real settings, eventually diffract.

HoloSpec: Dispersion‐Based 4D Computational Holographic Hyperspectral Imaging
HoloSpec, a compact dispersion‐based computational holographic system, achieves four‐dimensional imaging by retrieving 3D spatial structure and high‐resolution spectra from only two monochromatic snapshots. Using a single prism and a monochrome sensor, it resolves 430 spectral channels with 3 nm experimental resolution and 30 μm$\mathrm{\mu}\mathrm{m}$

Tunable Terahertz Generation in Dispersion‐Engineered ZnTe Waveguides
A dispersion‐engineered Zinc Telluride (ZnTe) slab waveguide platform enables tunable and efficient guided‐wave terahertz (THz) generation through modal phase matching. By tailoring the optical and THz modal dispersion, coherent THz emission is achieved across 0.1–3 THz.

A Nearly Perfect Implementation of a Broadband Optical Null Media via Space‐Folding
A space‐folding optical null medium with impedance‐matching layers enables broadband directional wave projection and wavefront engineering. By tailoring the folding ratio and dilution ratio, the structure maintains near‐unity transmittance over 5–9 GHz.

Generating Helical Polymorphic Beams Using Dielectric Metasurfaces
Helix‐shaped polymorphic beams are optical fields whose intensity maxima spiral around the propagation axis, enabling particle manipulation through attractive or repulsive forces. Traditionally requiring expensive spatial light modulators, metasurfaces now provide a compact, cost‐effective alternative. This work demonstrates general helical polymorphic

Invariance Properties and Measurement of Correlation Between Two Propagating or Evanescent Waves
This work analyses the strength of correlation between two propagating or evanescent plane waves generally expressed in different frames. Interferometric and nanoscattering‐based methods, respectively, are demonstrated for their measurement. The results show that the applied measure of correlation remains invariant under unitary polarization ...
