Generating a Twisted Spatiotemporal Wave Packet Using Coherent Superposition of Structured Beams with Different Frequencies

TL;DR: In this article, the superposition of beams carrying different LG modes located on different frequencies is explored to control the wave packet's spatio-temporal structures in simulation, and the dependence of the rotating helical envelope on the mode and frequency spectra is analyzed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Surface plasmon polaritons on metal-dielectric nanocomposite films

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface plasmon polaritons supported by a metal-dielectric nanocomposite film have properties that fall into one of three distinct categories depending on the metal fill fraction.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Transient stimulated Brillouin scattering dynamics in polarization maintaining optical fiber

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate SBS in polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber with square optical pulses having a duration short compared to the fiber transit time, and show that just above threshold, SBS is generated over the entire length of the fiber.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Single-shot measurement of the orbital-angular-momentum spectrum of light

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-shot scheme was proposed to measure the orbital angularmomentum (OAM) spectrum of a partially coherent field from parametric down-conversion with Schmidt number K = 82.1.
