Contrarily to a common belief, any beam of light possesses to a some extent the ability to "reconstruct itself" after hitting an obstacle. The celebrated Arago spot phenomenon is nothing but a manifestation of this property. In this work we…
Bessel beams' great importance in optics lies in that these propagate without spreading and can reconstruct themselves behind an obstruction placed across their path. However, a rigorous wave-optics explanation of the latter property is…
Self-healing -- the ability of a structured beam to reconstruct its transverse profile after partial obstruction -- has been demonstrated for diffraction-free beams, where the recovery distance varies continuously with obstruction size.…
Self-healing, as an exotic effect, has showed many potential applications. In this paper, we focus on the self-healing effect of Laguerre-Gaussian beams after an obstacle. By taking advantage of angular spectrum theory, we study…
In this work, we propose a predictor/indicator of the self-healing ability of coherent structured light beams: the field's modal content. Specifically, the fidelity between the obstructed and unobstructed beams' modal spectrum serves as a…
In this paper we demonstrate the postulated mechanism of self-healing specifically due to orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) in radio vortex beams having equal beam-widths. In previous work we experimentally demonstrated self-healing effects in…
An optical beam is said to be self-healing when, distorted by an obstacle, the beam corrects itself upon propagation. In this letter, we show through experiments supported by numerical simulations, that Helico-conical optical beams (HCOBs)…
The self-healing property of laser beams is of great interest. And a laser beam with spatial structures is also widely concerned due to its important applications in lots of areas. We theoretically and experimentally investigate the…
One of the most captivating properties of diffraction-free optical fields is their ability to reconstruct upon propagation in the presence of an obstacle both, classically and in the quantum regime. Here we demonstrate that the local…
Self-healing of light refers to the ability of a light field to recover its structure after being damaged by a partial obstruction placed in its propagation path. Here, we will give a comprehensive review of the history and development of…
We analyze and demonstrate, numerically and experimentally, the self-healing effect in scaled propagation invariant beams, subject to opaque obstructions.We introduce the signal to noise intensity ratio, a semi-analytical figure of merit,…
Light beams can carry a discrete, in principle unbounded amount of angular momentum. Examples of such beams, the Laguerre-Gauss modes, are frequently expressed as solutions of the paraxial wave equation. There, they are eigenstates of the…
Since the first experimental observation of optical Airy beams, various applications ranging from particle and cell micromanipulation to laser micromachining have exploited their non-diffracting and accelerating properties. The later…
In this paper we document for the first time some of the effects of self-healing, a property of orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) or vortex beams, as observed on a millimeter-wave experimental communications link in an outdoors line-of-sight…
We employed caustic theory to analyze the propagation dynamics of partially coherent self-accelerating beams such as self-healing of partially coherent Airy beams. Our findings revealed that as the spatial coherence decreases, the…
We investigate the problem of shaping radially symmetric annular beams into desired intensity patterns along the optical axis. Within the Fresnel approximation, we show that this problem can be expressed in a variational form equivalent to…
Diffraction is a fundamental property of light propagation. Owing to this phenomenon,light diffracts out in all directions when it passes through a subwavelength slit.This imposes a fundamental limit on the transverse size of a light beam…
Spatial characteristics of the optical-vortex (OV) beams created during the Gaussian beam diffraction by a grating with groove bifurcation are analyzed theoretically and numerically. In contrast to previous works, condition of small-angle…
Autonomic interfacial self-healing in elastomers enables their reprocessing and recycling, making them valuable for applications such as ballistic resistance, surface coatings, adhesives, and biomedical materials. This article prescribes a…
A solution to the inversion problem of scattering would offer aberration-free diffraction-limited 3D images without the resolution and depth-of-field limitations of lens-based tomographic systems. Powerful algorithms are increasingly being…
