Complex 3D Vortex Lattice Formation by Phase-Engineered Multiple Beam Interference

Abstract EN

We present the computational results on the formation of diverse complex 3D vortex lattices by a designed superposition of multiple plane waves.

Special combinations of multiples of three noncoplanar plane waves with a designed relative phase shift between one another are perturbed by a nonsingular beam to generate various complex 3D vortex lattice structures.

The formation of complex gyrating lattice structures carrying designed vortices by means of relatively phase-engineered plane waves is also computationally investigated.

The generated structures are configured with both periodic as well as transversely quasicrystallographic basis, while these whirling complex lattices possess a long-range order of designed symmetry in a given plane.

Various computational analytical tools are used to verify the presence of engineered geometry of vortices in these complex 3D vortex lattices.
