Focusing and correlation properties of white-light optical vortices.

چکیده
We generate double-charge white-light optical vortices by sending a circularly polarized partially incoherent light through an uniaxial crystal. We show that the generated polichromatic vortices are structurally stable, and their correlation properties can be altered by the beam focusing, resulting in changes of the vortex core visibility.

Generation of optical bottle beams by incoherent white-light vortices.
We generate experimentally optical bottle beams from incoherent double-charge white-light vortices, and show that their parameters can be efficiently controlled by varying the beam focusing conditions.
متن کاملSpatial correlation vortices in partially coherent light: theory
Coherent optical beams may contain optical vortices that are characterized by a dark core and a well-defined azimuthally harmonic phase.1,2 In contrast, different points in a spatially incoherent beam are uncorrelated, and the phase structure of an optical vortex is ill defined. In the transitional regime of partially coherent light, one should take the statistical properties of light into acco...
متن کاملModulated optical vortices.
Single-beam optical gradient force traps created by focusing helical modes of light are known as optical vortices. Modulating the helical pitch of such a mode's wave front yields a new class of optical traps whose dynamically reconfigurable intensity distributions provide new opportunities for controlling motion in mesoscopic systems. An implementation of modulated optical vortices based on the...
متن کاملVisible light photocatalytic activity of MWCNT/TiO2 using the degradation of methylene blue
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-doped TiO2 thin films were synthesized by the dip-coating method. The obtained products were characterized by SEM, EDX, XRD, and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. The XRD patterns showed the presence of anatase phase. Absorption spectrum of MWCNT-doped TiO2 revealed a red shift in the optical absorption edge due to carbon doping. The photocatalytic properties...
متن کاملCorrelation between crystal structure and optical properties of copper- doped ZnO thin films
ZnO and Cu doped[1] (CZO) thin films were prepared by radio frequency sputtering. The structural and optical properties of thin films were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical spectrophotometer, and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. ZnO thin films showed crystalline and micro-stress defects in the crystal lattice. Annealing of CZO thin films increa...
