••
TL;DR: In this paper, the amplification and subsequent recompression of optical chirped pulses were demonstrated using a system which produces 1.06 μm laser pulses with pulse widths of 2 ps and energies at the millijoule level.
3,961 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe methods for creating large numbers of high-quality optical traps in arbitrary three-dimensional configurations and for dynamically reconfiguring them under computer control, allowing for mixed arrays of traps based on different modes of light, including optical vortices, axial line traps, optical bottles and optical rotators.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, surface plasmon excitation in pairs of identical Au nanoparticles by optical transmission spectroscopy was studied and it was shown that with decreasing interparticle distance the surface plasm resonance shifts to longer wavelengths for a polarization direction parallel to the long particle pair axis whereas a blueshift is found for the orthogonal polarization.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, a spiral phaseplate can convert a TEM00 laser beam into a helical wavefront beam with a phase singularity at its axis, and the diffractive-optical effect of the spiral phase plate is implemented by index matching a macroscopic structure in an optical immersion.

••
TL;DR: In this article, a solution to an inverse scattering problem that arises in the application of holography to the determination of the three-dimensional structure of weakly scattering semi-transparent objects is presented.
