An exciting prospect in modern optics is to exploit patterns of light — how the light looks in its many degrees of freedom — often referred to as “structured light.” Each distinct pattern could form ...

The results open the way to improve resolution in a wide range of optical imaging techniques. The robustness of a HIRES-lens against distortion and abberation, together with their ease to manufacture, ...

An artistic impression of complex vectorial light passing through some distorting complex media and becoming altered in some way. The pattern of the light depicts the polarisation state. The complex ...

The visible distortion around the belly of the aircraft (left side of the photo) is caused by the shock waves that distort light as if it was entering a new medium. As we already explained in the past ...

Research offers a new approach to studying complex light in complex systems, such as transporting classical and quantum light through optical fiber, underwater channels, living tissue and other highly ...
