Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization pattern of vector vortex beams generated by q-plates with different topological charges
Filippo Cardano,Ebrahim Karimi,Sergei Slussarenko,Lorenzo Marrucci,Corrado de Lisio,Enrico Santamato +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the polarization topology of the vector beams emerging from a patterned birefringent liquid crystal plate with a topological charge q at its center (q-plate) is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Zak phases and topological invariants in a chiral quantum walk of twisted photons
Filippo Cardano,Alessio D'Errico,Alexandre Dauphin,Maria Maffei,Bruno Piccirillo,Corrado de Lisio,Guido de Filippis,Vittorio Cataudella,Enrico Santamato,Lorenzo Marrucci,Maciej Lewenstein,Maciej Lewenstein,Pietro Massignan +12 more
TL;DR: This work proposes and validate experimentally a method to detect topological properties in the bulk of one-dimensional chiral systems and proves the robustness of the measure by introducing dynamical disorder in the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spin–orbit photonics
Filippo Cardano,Lorenzo Marrucci +1 more
TL;DR: A short overview of the emerging photonic applications that rely on spin-orbit optical phenomena can be found in this paper, where the photon spin interaction with the light wave propagation and spatial distribution is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation and dynamics of optical beams with polarization singularities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method to generate vector beams of light having polarization singularities on their axis, via partial spin-to-orbital angular momentum conversion in a suitably patterned liquid crystal cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum walks and wavepacket dynamics on a lattice with twisted photons
Filippo Cardano,Francesco Massa,Hammam Qassim,Ebrahim Karimi,Sergei Slussarenko,Domenico Paparo,Corrado de Lisio,Fabio Sciarrino,Enrico Santamato,Robert W. Boyd,Lorenzo Marrucci +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a photonic implementation of the quantum walk in the orbital angular momentum space of light is presented, where the whole process develops in a single light beam, with no need of interferometers, and it requires optical resources scaling linearly with the number of steps.
