In this dissertation, we use theory and computation to conduct three projects in the area of nano-optics. In the first project, we study optical coherence conversion using a plasmonic hole array. This work led to the discovery of the optical coher...
Vortices in optical beams have been the subject of extensive study since their status as a generic feature of light was established. They have found extensive use in optical trapping systems, astronomy, microscopy and are being investigated for fr...
