چکیده
We propose and generate a class of structured light fulfilling the mathematical form SU(2) coherent state based on set circular Airy vortex modes. Such wave packets possess strong focus with both radial angular self-accelerations, which exploit more general 3D inhomogeneous velocity control global spatial symmetry multilayer rotation akin to galactic kinematics, termed galaxy waves. Galaxy waves are endowed higher degrees freedom focusing acceleration, opens direction multi-dimensional accelerating field, promising numerous applications in optical trapping, manufacturing, nonlinear optics.

Guided Self-Accelerating Airy Beams—A Mini-Review
Owing to the nondiffracting, self-accelerating, and self-healing properties, Airy beams of different nature have become a subject of immense interest in the past decade. Their interesting properties have opened doors to many diverse applications. Consequently, the questions of how to properly design spatial manipulation of Airy beams or how to implement them in different setups have become impo...
متن کاملSelf-focusing dynamics of ultraintense accelerating Airy waveforms in water
We report experiments and numerical simulations on the self-focusing and filamentation of ultraintense femtosecond Airy waveforms in water. The accelerating property of Airy waveforms results in the generation of distinct features in the angularly resolved spectra of forward-propagating supercontinuum emission. Fitting these features with appropriate phase-matching conditions allows for the qua...

We investigate the acceleration dynamics of quasi-diffraction-free Airy beams in both one- and two-dimensional configurations. We show that this class of finite energy waves can retain their intensity features over several diffraction lengths. The possibility of other physical realizations involving spatiotemporal Airy wave packets is also considered.
متن کاملObservation of accelerating Airy beams.
We report the first observation of Airy optical beams. This intriguing class of wave packets, initially predicted by Berry and Balazs in 1979, has been realized in both one- and two-dimensional configurations. As demonstrated in our experiments, these Airy beams can exhibit unusual features such as the ability to remain diffraction-free over long distances while they tend to freely accelerate d...
متن کاملAiry wave packets accelerating in space-time
Although diffractive spreading is an unavoidable feature of all wave phenomena, certain waveforms can attain propagation-invariance. A lesser-explored strategy for achieving optical selfsimilar propagation exploits the modification of the spatio-temporal field structure when observed in reference frames moving at relativistic speeds. For such an observer, it is predicted that the associated Lor...
