In this manuscript, we put forward two new types of structured light beams, the vortex Pearcey-Gauss (VPeG) beam, with a homogeneous polarisation distribution, and the vector vortex Pearcey-Gauss (VVPeG) beam, with a non-homogeneous…

Harnessing the spontaneous emission of incoherent quantum emitters is one of the hallmarks of nano-optics. Yet, an enduring challenge remains-making them emit vector beams, which are complex forms of light associated with fruitful…
