Space-time wave packets (STWPs) constitute a broad class of pulsed optical fields that are
rigidly transported in linear media without diffraction or dispersion, and are therefore …

The overall goal of photonics research is to understand and control light in new and richer
ways to facilitate new and richer applications. Many major developments to this end have …

Self-healing of light refers to the ability of a light field to recover its structure after being
damaged by a partial obstruction placed in its propagation path. Here, we will give a …

Refraction at the interface between two materials is fundamental to the interaction of light
with photonic devices and to the propagation of light through the atmosphere at large …

Introducing correlations between the spatial and temporal degrees of freedom of a pulsed
optical beam (or wave packet) can profoundly alter its propagation in free space. Indeed …

Light is confined transversely and delivered axially in a waveguide. However, waveguides
are lossy static structures whose modal characteristics are fundamentally determined by …

Can an optical pulse traverse a non-dispersive material at the speed of light in vacuum?
Because traditional approaches for controlling the group velocity of light manipulate either …

The group velocity of 'space-time'wave packets–propagation-invariant pulsed beams
endowed with tight spatio-temporal spectral correlations–can take on arbitrary values in free …

The capacity of self-healing fields to reconstruct after passing through scattering media may
prove useful in reducing speckle formation. Here, we study the speckle response of the …

We introduce the space-time (ST) vector light sheet. This unique one-dimensional ST wave
packet is characterized by classical entanglement (CE), a correlation between at least two …
