Structured light refers to the arbitrarily tailoring of optical fields in all their degrees of freedom
(DoFs), from spatial to temporal. Although orbital angular momentum (OAM) is perhaps the …

In the last three decades, light's orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been of great interest
because it has unique characteristics that make it sought after in many research fields …

As we celebrate 30 years since light's orbital angular momentum (OAM) was connected to its
spatial structure, we reflect on the advances made in fundamental science and applications …

Structured light has become topical of late, where controlling light in all its degrees of
freedom has offered novel states of light long predicted, enhanced functionality in …

High-dimensional entangled states are promising candidates for increasing the security and
encoding capacity of quantum systems. While it is possible to witness and set bounds for the …

Here we report the generation and power amplification of higher-order (l= 2) orbital angular
momentum (OAM) beams using a compact end-pumped Nd: YAG Master-Oscillator-Power …

Compared to conventional lasers limited to generating static modes, mode-switchable lasers
equipped with adjustable optics significantly enhance the flexibility and versatility of …

Visible vortex beams have a large array of applications; however, the sources are often
large or complex. Here, we present a compact vortex source with red, orange, and dual …

The resolution of the spatial light modulator (SLM) screen and the encoding algorithm of the
computer-generated hologram are the primary limiting factors in the generation of large …

Diffraction patterns of optical vortex beams (VBs) by differently shaped apertures are used to
determine their topological charge (TC). In this paper, we show by simulations and …
