On-chip spatial and polarization multiplexing have emerged as a powerful strategy to boost the bandwidth of integrated optical transceivers. State-of-the-art multiplexers require accurate control of the relative phase or the spatial…
Current scalar coronagraph focal plane mask designs are performance-limited by chromaticity. We investigate the effects of adding central Roddier and dual zone phase dimples to scalar vortex masks to improve broadband performance by…
Subwavelength grating micro-polarizer arrays, as a type of focal plane division simultaneous detection method, are significantly advancing the development and practical application of polarization imaging technology. Based on the…
Programmable photonic integrated circuits represent an emerging technology that amalgamates photonics and electronics, paving the way for light-based information processing at high speeds and low power consumption. Considering their wide…
The SVOM Visible Telescope (VT) is critical for the rapid identification of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical counterparts, particularly for high-redshift candidates that require immediate infrared spectroscopic follow-up. To address the…
Cylindrical vector beams (CVBs), which possesses polarization distribution of rotational symmetry on the transverse plane, can be developed in many optical technologies. Conventional methods to generate CVBs contain redundant…
We put forward a novel method to generate high-brilliance polarized $\gamma$-photon beams via vacuum dichroism (VD)-assisted vacuum birefringence (VB) effect. We split a linearly polarized (LP) laser pulse into two subpulses with the first…
We describe the incorporation of polarized radiative transfer into the atmospheric radiative transfer modelling code VSTAR (Versatile Software for Transfer of Atmospheric Radiation). Using a vector discrete-ordinate radiative transfer code…
Context. The Annular Groove Phase Mask (AGPM) is one possible implementation of the vector vortex coronagraph, where the helical phase ramp is produced by a concentric subwavelength grating. For several years, we have been manufacturing…
The continual push to directly image exoplanets at lower masses and closer separations orbiting around bright stars remains limited by both quasi-static and residual adaptive optics (AO) aberration. In previous papers we have proposed a…
Beamforming design for extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems is challenging due to prohibitive computational complexity and complex near-field propagation effects. To address this, this paper introduces a…
Telescope pupil fragmentation from spiders generates specific aberrations observed at various telescopes and expected on the large telescopes under construction. This so-called island effect induces differential pistons, tips and tilts on…
In this paper we generalize the concept of $q$-plate, allowing arbitrary functions of both the radial and the azimuthal variables, and study their effect on uniformly polarized beams in the near and far-field regime. This gives a tool for…
Valley Hall photonic crystals (VPCs) offer the potential to create topological waveguides capable of guiding light through sharp bends on a chip. They can seamlessly integrate with functional components while occupying minimal space, making…
Affine frequency division multiplexing (AFDM) has recently emerged as a promising waveform for doubly-selective channles [1],[2], owing to its ability to fully exploit time-frequency diversity through appropriate tuning of the chirp-rate…
The state of polarization (SOP) is an inherent property of the vectorial nature of light and a crucial parameter in a wide range of remote sensing applications. Nevertheless, the SOP is rather cumbersome to probe experimentally, as…
Of the over 5000 exoplanets that have been detected, only about a dozen have ever been directly imaged. Earth-like exoplanets are on the order of 10 billion times fainter than their host star in visible and near-infrared, requiring a…
Low image contrast is a major limitation in transmission electron microscopy, since samples with low atomic number only weakly phase-modulate the illuminating electron beam, and beam-induced sample damage limits the usable electron dose.…
A crucial component of the high-contrast instrumental chain in astronomy is the wavefront sensor (WFS). A key property of this component is its sensitivities, which reflect its ability to efficiently use incoming photons to encode the phase…
We introduce a framework for the reconstruction of the amplitude, phase and polarisation of an optical vector-field using calibration measurements acquired by an imaging device with an unknown linear transformation. By incorporating…
