Applying similar slow change in the pattern in one direction, as reported in “Nature Nanotechnology” work, researchers have created waveguided for structured light.

Now researchers at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) have outlined a new optical communication protocol that exploits spatial patterns of light for multi-dimensional encoding in a manner ...

A structured light refers to a light field which is "customized" in both space and time, characterized by its unique distribution of amplitude, phase, and polarization state in both space and time.

May 17, 2023: Researchers use structured light on a chip in another photonics breakthrough (Nanowerk News) In everyday life we experience light in one of its simplest forms – optical rays or ...
