Article Abstract
In this study, we numerically simulate the evolution of the orbital angular momentum (OAM) spectrum of a vortex laser beam in the optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) process, which is an effective technical method to realize ultra-intense and ultra-short vortex laser amplification. The results show that the proportion of the vortex laser beam with 100% topological charge (TC) of 1 decreases to 97.44% with the enhancement of the saturation amplification after amplification by a 15 mm length LBO pumped by a 526.5 nm laser with a pump intensity of 1.74 GW/cm. Conversely, the beams with other topological charges generate and increase with the amplification. The simulation results are consistent with our previous experimental results. Meanwhile, compared with non-collinear OPCPA, collinear OPCPA can maintain well the proportion of TC [Formula: see text].

Dirac-vortex cavities have single-mode emitting, scalable mode areas, arbitrary mode degeneracies, and vector-beam vertical emission, which attract more and more researchers' attention. Here, we demonstrate the single-mode of two-dimensional transverse magnetic (TM) Dirac-vortex topological cavity modes that are not only generally available for high power topological surface-emitting lasers (TCSEL) but also are one of the excellent candidates for refractive index sensors. The principle for winding number is studied, and the scaling laws are shown with cavity mode diameters.

Optical vortices possess a helical phase wavefront with central phase dislocation and orbital angular momentum. We demonstrated three-dimensional microstructure formation using a femtosecond optical vortex beam. Two-photon polymerization of photocurable resin was induced by long-term exposure, resulting in the fabrication of cylindrical structures.

Whispering-gallery mode (WGM) resonators, renowned for their high Q-factors and narrow line widths, are widely utilized in integrated photonics. Integrating diffraction gratings onto WGM cavities has gained significant attention because these gratings function as azimuthal refractive index modulators, enabling single-mode WGM emissions and supporting beams with orbital angular momentum (OAM). The introduction of curved grating structures facilitates guided mode resonances by coupling high-order diffracted waves with leaking modes from the waveguide.

The generation of vector beams using metasurfaces is crucial for the manipulation of light fields and has significant application potential, ranging from classical physics to quantum science. This paper introduces a novel dielectric metasurface composed of quarter-wave plate (QWP) meta-atoms, known as a QWP metasurface, designed to generate focused vector beams (VBs) of Bell-like states under right circularly polarized illumination. The propagation phase imparted on both the co- and cross-polarized components of the output field constructs hyperbolic and helical phase profiles with topological charge , whereas the Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase acts only on the cross-polarized component to construct another helical phase profile with topological charge .

Structured beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) provide powerful capabilities for applications in optical tweezers, super-resolution imaging, quantum optics, and ad-vanced microparticle manipulation. However, it is challenging for generate and control the OAM beams at the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) region due to the lack of suitable wave front shaping optics arise from being limited to the strong absorption of most materials. Here, we use a modified Fermat-spiral photon-sieve splitter to simultaneously generate two focused doughnut beams with opposite helical phase.
