The use of structured light to drive highly nonlinear processes in matter not only enables imprinting spatially-resolved properties onto short-wavelength radiation, but also opens alternative avenues for exploring the dynamics of nonlinear…

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…

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.…

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 found that the Hermit-Gaussian(HG) modes of the down converted beams from the spontaneous parametric down conversion are quasi-conserved and the generated photon pairs are HG modes entangled for some special cases. This is valuable for…

The Hermite-Gaussian (HG) modes make up a complete and orthonormal basis, which have been extensively used to describe optical fields. Here, we demonstrate, for the first time to our knowledge, deep learning-based modal decomposition (MD)…

We show that, contrary to popular belief, non only diffraction-free beams may reconstruct themselves after hitting an opaque obstacle but also, for example, Gaussian beams. We unravel the mathematics and the physics underlying the…

In laser-based free-space optical communication, besides OAM beams, Hermite-Gaussian (HG) modes or HG-mode coherently composed states (HG-MCCS) can also be adopted as the information carrier to extend the channel capacity with the spatial…

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…

We found that small perturbations of the optical vortex core in the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams generate a fine structure of the Hermite-Gauss (HG) mode spectrum. Such perturbations can be easily simulated by weak variations of amplitudes…

The Hermite-Gaussian (HG) modes, sometimes also referred to as transverse electromagnetic modes in free space, form a complete and orthonormal basis that have been extensively used to describe optical fields. In addition, these modes have…

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)…

Generalised Hermite-Gaussian modes (gHG modes), an extended notion of Hermite-Gaussian modes (HG modes), are formed by the summation of normal HG modes with a characteristic function $\alpha$, which can be used to unite conventional HG…

The multiple lobes of high order Hermite-Gaussian (HG) laser modes differ in terms of shape, size, and optical energy distribution. Here, we introduce a generic numerical method that redistributes optical energy among the lobes of high…

Hermite-Gaussian (HG) laser modes are a complete set of solutions to the free-space paraxial wave equation in Cartesian coordinates and represent a close approximation to physically-realizable laser cavity modes. Additionally, HG modes can…

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…

Astigmatic unitary transformations allow for the adiabatic connections of all feasible states of paraxial Gaussian beams on the same modal sphere, i.e., Hermite-Laguerre-Gaussian (HLG) modes. Here, we present a comprehensive investigation…

Laser beams with high optical power propagating in a Kerr medium can undergo self-focusing when their power exceeds a critical power determined by the optical properties of the medium. The highly concentrated energy close to the in the…

A unique feature of non-Hermitian (NH) systems is the NH skin effect, i.e. the edge localization of an extensive number of bulk-band eigenstates in a lattice with open or semi-infinite boundaries. Unlike extended Bloch waves in Hermitian…

Odd-indexed higher-order Hermite-Gauss (HG) modes are compatible with 4-quadrant segmented mirrors due to their intensity nulls along the principal axes, which guarantees minimum beam intensity illuminating the bond lines between the…
