Beyond skyrmions: Review and perspectives of alternative magnetic quasiparticles

Boerge Goebel et al.

Summary: Magnetic skyrmions have attracted significant research interest since their discovery a decade ago, due to their non-trivial real-space topology and potential technological applications. However, the utilization of skyrmions in spintronic devices has not been achieved yet, mainly because of shortcomings in their current-driven motion. Additionally, beyond skyrmions, there are emerging trends in the field of topological spin textures.

Unlabeled Far-Field Deeply Subwavelength Topological Microscopy (DSTM)

Tanchao Pu et al.

Summary: The new type of far-field optical microscopy introduced in this study reveals fine structures of objects with resolution powers better than conventional methods. It is shown to be tolerant to noise and achievable with low dynamic range light intensity detectors. Deep learning reconstruction can be extended to objects of random shape and particularly efficient in microscopy of a priori known shapes.

Optical polarization skyrmionic fields in free space

Rodrigo Gutierrez-Cuevas et al.

Summary: In this study, optical beams with robust skyrmionic structures in their polarization fields have been successfully constructed in free space. These structures exhibit both circular and linear polarizations, providing a high degree of topological protection without nonlinear interactions. The construction is enabled by spin-orbit coupling and standing-wave configurations.

Creation and control of high-dimensional multi-partite classically entangled light

Yijie Shen et al.

Summary: This research demonstrates the creation and full control of vectorially structured light in eight dimensions, controlling a complete set of classical Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states for the first time. It also introduces a new tomography method to verify the fidelity of these states, opening up new pathways for extending the dimensionality and degrees of freedom of vectorially structured light in both classical and quantum regimes.

Spatio-temporal characterization of ultrashort vector pulses

Apostolos Zdagkas et al.

Summary: Ultrafast vectorially polarized pulses with strong longitudinal components and space-polarization non-separability have wide applications, but their pulse propagation dynamics are significantly influenced by space-time couplings. A new method combining spatially resolved Fourier transform spectroscopy and Mach-Zehnder interferometry can characterize the spatiotemporal properties of ultrashort cylindrical vector pulses. This method provides access to spatially resolved spectral amplitudes and phases of all polarization components of the pulse.

Topological bimeronic beams

Yijie Shen

Summary: This study introduces a new type of structured light, bimeronic beams, which characterize the topological structures of bimeron. These beams can emulate bimeron structures and form various topological textures by adjusting the mode parameters. The bimeronic beams reveal a mechanism to transform diverse topological states of light, similar to skyrmionic transformations among Niel, Bloch, and anti-skyrmion types.

Focused fields of ultrashort radially polarized laser pulses having low-order spatiotemporal couplings

Spencer W. Jolly

Summary: In this study, we investigated the fields and propagation characteristics around the focus of ultrashort radially polarized laser beams with low-order spatiotemporal couplings, showing promising potential for exotic applications. The STCs considered are primarily linear in frequency and developed in a standard frequency-domain model, offering new opportunities for control of the electric field with polarization.

Measures of space-time nonseparability of electromagnetic pulses

Yijie Shen et al.

Summary: Electromagnetic pulses, once seen as separable solutions of Maxwell's equations, are now being explored for their potential in energy and information transfer due to recent advances in structured light and topological optics. A quantum mechanics-inspired methodology has been proposed to quantitatively characterize the nonseparability of structured pulses in space-time, demonstrating the potential of nonseparable pulses as information carriers.
