We provide an illustration of a geometric structure that exhibits the spin-half wave-function characteristics, namely that its full rotation displays a phase inversion. We show that general fractional-spin geometric structures are possible,…

Optical approaches for wavefront shaping traditionally rely on phase modulation through holographic techniques. Shaping the phase determines a wave's diffraction and hence its intensity distribution in space. We instead show that shaping…
