We demonstrate that higher order Poincare modes of order m are super-chiral, displaying enhancement factors proportional to $m$ and $m^2$ in their helicity/chirality. With m having arbitrarily large integer values, such modes, in principle,…
We present a systematic treatment of higher-order modes of vacuum-clad ultrathin optical fibers. We show that, for a given fiber, the higher-order modes have larger penetration lengths, larger effective mode radii, and larger fractional…
We show that, in general, any type of radially-polarised paraxial twisted optical mode carries only an axial total optical angular momentum (AM) ${\bar {\cal J}_z}=\ell{\cal L}_0$ where $\ell$ is the winding number and ${\cal L}_0$ is a…
