Due to their unique ability to maintain an intensity distribution upon propagation, non-diffracting light fields are used extensively in various areas of science, including optical tweezers, nonlinear optics and quantum optics, in applications where complex transverse field distributions are required. However, the number and type of rigorously non-diffracting beams is severely limited because their symmetry is dictated by one of the coordinate system where the Helmholtz equation governing beam propagation is separable. Here, we demonstrate a powerful technique that allows the generation of a rich variety of quasi-non-diffracting optical beams featuring nearly arbitrary intensity distributions in the transverse plane. These can be readily engineered via modifications of the angular spectrum of the beam in order to meet the requirements of particular applications. Such beams are not rigorously non-diffracting but they maintain their shape over large distances, which may be tuned by varying the width of the angular spectrum. We report the generation of unique spiral patterns and patterns involving arbitrary combinations of truncated harmonic, Bessel, Mathieu, or parabolic beams occupying different spatial domains. Optical trapping experiments illustrate the opto-mechanical properties of such beams.

In this work, we present the computational simulations of holographic metasurfaces to generation of the optical non-diffracting beams. The metasurfaces are designed by the holographic technique and the computer-generated holograms (CGHs) of optical n
on-diffracting beams are generated computationally. These holographic metasurfaces (HMS) are obtained by modeling a periodic lattice of metallic patches on dielectric substrates with sub-wavelength dimensions, where each one of those unit cells change the phase of the incoming wave. We use the surface impedance (Z) to control the phase of the electromagnetic wave through the metasurface in each unit cell. The sub-wavelength dimensions guarantees that the effective medium theory is fulfilled. The results is according to the predicted by non-diffracting beams theory. These results are important given the possibilities of applications in optical tweezers, optics communications, optical metrology, 3D imaging, and others in optics and photonics
Space-time (ST) wave packets are coherent pulsed beams that propagate diffraction-free and dispersion-free by virtue of tight correlations introduced between their spatial and temporal spectral degrees of freedom. Less is known of the behavior of inc
oherent ST fields that maintain the spatio-temporal spectral structure of their coherent wave-packet counterparts while losing all purely spatial or temporal coherence. We show here that structuring the spatio-temporal spectrum of an incoherent field produces broadband incoherent ST fields that are diffraction-free. The intensity profile of these fields consists of a narrow spatial feature atop a constant background. Spatio-temporal spectral engineering allows controlling the width of this spatial feature, tuning it from a bright to a dark diffraction-free feature, and varying its amplitude relative to the background. These results pave the way to new opportunities in the experimental investigation of optical coherence of fields jointly structured in space and time by exploiting the techniques usually associated with ultrafast optics.
We describe an experimental technique to generate a quasi-monochromatic field with any arbitrary spatial coherence properties that can be described by the cross-spectral density function, $W(mathbf{r_1,r_2})$. This is done by using a dynamic binary a
mplitude grating generated by a digital micromirror device (DMD) to rapidly alternate between a set of coherent fields, creating an incoherent mix of modes that represent the coherent mode decomposition of the desired $W(mathbf{r_1,r_2})$. This method was then demonstrated experimentally by interfering two plane waves and then spatially varying the coherent between these two modes such that the interference fringe visibility was shown to vary spatially between the two beams in an arbitrary and prescribed way.
The explorations of the quantum-inspired symmetries in optical and photonic systems have witnessed immense research interests both fundamentally and technologically in a wide range of subjects of physics and engineering. One of the principal emerging
fields in this context is non-Hermitian physics based on parity-time symmetry, originally proposed in the studies pertaining to quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, recently ramified into diverse set of areas, particularly in optics and photonics. The intriguing physical effects enabled by non-Hermitian physics and PT symmetry have enhanced significant applications prospects and engineering of novel materials. In addition, it has observed increasing research interests in many emerging directions beyond optics and photonics. This Review paper attempts to bring together the state of the art developments in the field of complex non-Hermitian physics based on PT symmetry in various physical settings along with elucidating key concepts and background and a detailed perspective on new emerging directions. It can be anticipated that this trendy field of interest can be indispensable in providing new perspectives in maneuvering the flow of light in the diverse physical platforms in optics, photonics, condensed matter, opto-electronics and beyond, and offer distinctive applications prospects in novel functional materials.
This paper aims to maximize optical force and torque on arbitrary micro- and nano-scale objects using numerically optimized structured illumination. By developing a numerical framework for computer-automated design of 3d vector-field illumination, we
demonstrate a 20-fold enhancement in optical torque per intensity over circularly polarized plane wave on a model plasmonic particle. The nonconvex optimization is efficiently performed by combining a compact cylindrical Bessel basis representation with a fast boundary element method and a standard derivative-free, local optimization algorithm. We analyze the optimization results for 2000 random initial configurations, discuss the tradeoff between robustness and enhancement, and compare the different effects of multipolar plasmon resonances on enhancing force and torque. All results are obtained using open-source computational software available online.
