We propose a polarization independent LCoS device which uses a polymer quarter-wave plate for polarization conversion. We designed a custom pixel circuit which enables high driving voltage and high pixel grayscale by utilizing an analog driving frame buffer pixel circuit. Our pixel circuit is optimized for small pixel size and the silicon backplanes can be fabricated at a traditional foundry.

By illuminating a 1D gold grating with shallow rectangular grooves with a spatially structured polarization beam of near-infrared light (780 nm), we selectively excited SPPs on an extended area. The parameters used to fabricate the grating coupler, matched the wave vector of the incident light with that of the SPP to achieve an efficient coupling. The incident wave illuminating the grating is a spatially inhomogeneous polarized beam. We designed local polarization states to control the local excitation of the SPP in order to pattern large areas. For real-time local control of the polarization state of the extended incident beam, we used a setup with a spatial light modulator and quarter-wave plate.","PeriodicalId":16775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Optics","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we determine the intrinsic properties of integer order Poincaré Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) modes which have so far neither been evaluated, nor their significance highlighted. The theoretical framework we adopt here is both novel and essential because it emphasises the crucial role played by the normally ignored axial components of the twisted light fields of these modes. We show that the inclusion of the axial field components enables the intrinsic properties of the Poincaré modes, notably their angular momentum, both spin and orbital as well as their helicity and chirality, to be determined. We predict significant enhancements of the intrinsic properties of these modes when compared with those due to the zero order LG modes. In particular, we show that higher order LG Poincaré modes exhibit super-chirality and, significantly so, even in the case of the first order m = 1.","PeriodicalId":16775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Optics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their associated characteristics of ultra-small, ultra-fast and topological protection have great application prospects in high density data storage, light matter interaction and optical communication. At present, the research of optical skyrmions is still in its infancy, where the construction and flexible regulation of different topological textures are current research hotspot. Here, we combine the twist degree of freedom of materials and optical skyrmions. Based on graphene–chiral–graphene multilayers structure, we demonstrate the field mode symmetry and hybridization to form Bloch-type graphene plasmons skyrmion lattice. At the same time, by changing chirality parameter, the Fermi energy of graphene and the phase of incident light, multidimensional control of Bloch-type optical skyrmions can be realized. Our work demonstrated that the properties of materials provide the additional dimensions to regulate the topological states, and the combination of different materials structures provides the possibility for dynamic construction and manipulation of multiple topological states, which is expected to find applications in integrated nanophotonics devices.","PeriodicalId":16775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Optics","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study employs dark field (DF) polarization indirect microscopic imaging to investigate the scattering photon state and reveal the spatial distribution characteristics with distinct multipolar features, contrasting with those observed in the BF imaging configuration. Computational simulations utilizing the finite-difference time-domain method were conducted to understand this behaviour further and consider the experimental setup’s impact. The observations of varying multipolar scattering features with changes in the incident angle of the DF illumination suggest that the excitation of plasmonic effects differs for light beams incident at different angles.","PeriodicalId":16775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Optics","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In transverse plane, the vectorial light field has spatially varying polarization distributions where we are allowed to have a greater number of degrees of freedom. In this scheme, the input image is first phase encoded and then modulated by a phase encrypting key, synthesized from the speckles obtained by the scattering of Hermite–Gaussian beams. The modulated image is further processed using fractional Fourier transform with a specific order (α). A pixel scrambling operator is utilized to increase the randomness to further enhance the security and singular value decomposition approach is employed to add the nonlinearity in the encryption process. Now, the stokes parameters, i.e. S1 and S2 are calculated using the light intensities correspond to different polarizations. S1 is used as the encrypted image for transmission and S2 is reserved as one of the private decryption keys. The robustness of the proposed technique is tested against various existing attacks, such as known plaintext attack, chosen plaintext attack, and contamination attacks. Numerically simulated results validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":16775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Optics","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
