Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of coherence and polarization using liquid crystal spatial light modulators.

TL;DR: In contrast to a similar technique analyzed by Shirai and Wolf, this method provides a wide range simultaneous modulation of coherence and polarization of electromagnetic fields, employing two crossed zero-twelve nematic liquid crystal spatial light modulators.
Journal ArticleDOI

The van Cittert-Zernike theorem for electromagnetic fields.

TL;DR: The van Cittert-Zernike theorem, well known for the scalar optical fields, is generalized for the case of vector electromagnetic fields and shows that the degree of coherence of the electromagnetic field produced by the completely incoherent vector source increases on propagation whereas thedegree of polarization remains unchanged.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of partially coherent diffraction-free fields with tunable geometry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of diffraction-free fields with different profiles is described, and the synthesis is done by illuminating a screen containing a circular slit with a cosine beam.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-focusing transmittances

TL;DR: The experimental and computational results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions and show that the changes in the morphology of the diffraction field are bounded by the focusing regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface Plasmon Singularities

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the synthesis of optical singularities propagating in the free space and on a metal surface, and show that singularities in free space may generate bifurcation effects while plasmon fields do not generate these kinds of effects.
