Ultrashort intense-field optical vortices produced with laser-etched mirrors.
We introduce a simple and practical method to create ultrashort intense optical vortices for applications involving high-intensity lasers. Our method utilizes femtosecond laser pulses to laser etch grating lines into laser-quality gold mirrors. These grating lines holographically encode an optical vortex. We derive mathematical equations for each individual grating line to be etched, for any de...
متن کاملCreation of Optical Vortices Using an Adjustable Spiral Phase Plate and Computer-Generated Holograms
An adjustable spiral phase plate and computer-generated holograms were investigated as methods for creating optical vortices. The phase plate was created by cutting a plastic microscope cover slip from a corner to its center and separating the resultant tabs by inserting a uniformly thick wedge between them. The computer-generated holograms were designed by mathematically interfering an oblique...
متن کاملDual-mode spiral vortices.
We show that spiral vortices in oscillatory systems can lose stability to secondary modes to form dual-mode spiral vortices. The secondary modes grow at the vortex core where the oscillation amplitude vanishes but are nonlinearly damped by the oscillatory mode away from the core. Gradients of the oscillation phase, induced by the hosted secondary mode, can lead to additional hosting events that...
متن کاملMechano-optical waveguide on-off intensity modulator.
High-extinction on-off modulators are essential for channel selection in integrated-optical sensor arrays. We report a standard SiON-technology-based electrostatically driven integrated mechano-optical waveguide on-off intensity modulator. On-off modulation is achieved by movement of an absorbing element into and out of the evanescent field of the guided mode. An extinction ratio of >37 dB at a...
متن کاملSpiral intensity patterns in the internally pumped optical parametric oscillator
We describe a nonlinear optical system that supports spiral pattern solutions in the field intensity. This new spatial structure is found to bifurcate above a secondary instability in the internally pumped optical parametric oscillator. The analytical predictions of threshold and spatial scale for the instability are supplemented by detailed numerical investigations of the formation of spiral p...
