AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers have created tiny gradient index vortex masks using a technique called modified stack-and-draw.
  • These masks are flat glass plates with internal nanostructures made from two types of soft glass nanorods.
  • The study shows that these masks can effectively generate optical vortices with charges of 1 and 2.

Article Abstract

We report the development of microscopic size gradient index vortex masks using the modified stack-and-draw technique. The vortex mask has a form of flat surface all-glass plate. Its functionality is determined by an internal nanostructure composed of two types of soft glass nanorods. The generation of optical vortices with charges 1 and 2 is demonstrated.
