The Talbot effect, also referred to as self-imaging or lensless imaging, was originally discovered in the 1830's by Henry Fox Talbot. Over the years, various investigators have found different aspects of this phenomenon, and a theory of the…
The Talbot effect in quantum physics is known to produce intricate patterns in the probability distribution of a particle, known as "quantum carpets", corresponding to the revival and replication of the initial wave function. Recently, it…
Graphene plasmons are rapidly emerging as a viable tool for fast electrical manipulation of light. The prospects for applications to electro-optical modulation, optical sensing, quantum plasmonics, light harvesting, spectral photometry, and…
Transformation optics (TO) has been used to propose various novel optical devices. With the help of metamaterials, several intriguing designs, such as invisibility cloaks, have been implemented. However, as the basic units should be much…
The Talbot effect describes the emergence of periodic patterns in perturbed propagating wave fields. The effect is well studied for perturbations from structurally coherent optics such as diffraction gratings. The emergence of freeform and…
We discuss the Lugiato-Lefever equation and its variant with third-order dispersion, which are mathematical models used to describe how a light beam forms patterns within an optical cavity. It is mathematically demonstrated that the…
We propose a scheme to create high-contrast, periodic atom density distributions having period $\lambda /2n$ using the Talbot effect, where $% \lambda $ is the wave length of the optical fields that scatter the atoms and $n$ is a positive…
Creating arbitrary light patterns finds applications in various domains including lithography, beam shaping, metrology, sensing and imaging. We study the formation of high-contrast light patterns that are obtained by transmission through an…
Light with light control of surface plasmon polaritons is theoretically demonstrated. A barely simple and compact source of these waves consists in a finite number of slits (evenly spaced) perforating a metal film. The system scatters…
We predict an optical curtain effect, i.e., formation of a spatially invariant light field as light emerges from a set of periodic metallic nano-objects. The underlying physical mechanism of generation of this unique optical curtain can be…
We propose a spin polarized Talbot effect for an electron beam scattered from a grating of magnetic nanostructures. Existing periodic magnetic nanostructures can be used in conjunction with electron-beam illumination to create a spin…
Considered to only exist in the fairy tales in the past, invisibility cloaks have been successively converted into reality no matter in the spatial domain or temporal domain. Inspired by the spatial cloaking, time gaps are utilized to hide…
Conventional projection Talbot lithography usually employs opaque (amplitude) or transparent (phase) masks for creating a periodic array of Fresnel diffraction fringes in the photosensitive substrate. For particular mask design the…
In this letter, we study the scattering of light by a single subwavelength slit in a metal screen. In contrast to previous theoretical works, we provide a microscopic description of the scattering process by emphasizing the generation of…
By modulating transmission function of a weak probe field via a strong control standing wave, an electromagnetically induced grating can be created in the probe channel. Such a nonmaterial grating may lead to self-imaging of ultra-cold…
The scattering of light and surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) by finite arrays of either holes or dimples in a metal film is treated theoretically. A modal expansion formalism, capable of handling real metals with up to thousands of…
Using simulations and theoretical arguments we investigate the specular reflection of a perforated gold film deposited on a glass substrate. A square lattice of cylindrical holes is assumed to produce the periodic lateral corrugation needed…
The second-order Talbot effect is analyzed for a periodic object illuminated by entangled photon pairs in both the quantum imaging and quantum lithography configurations. The Klyshko picture is applied to describe the quantum imaging…
Nonlinear light-matter interactions are typically enhanced by increasing the local field and its interaction time with matter. Conventional methods to achieve these goals are based on resonances or slow-light effects. However, these methods…
We present a novel method for multi-color wavefront measurement of high-order harmonic generation beams using the Talbot effect, validated both theoretically and experimentally for the first time. Each harmonic maintains a unique wavefront…
