The diffraction of light is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature where waves spread out as they propagate. This spreading of light beams during propagation limits the efficient transmission of energy and information. Therefore, scientists have endeavored to suppress diffraction effects to better maintain the shape and direction of light beams.

However, devices for modulating non-diffracting light fields have typically been bulky and have limitations such as low resolution and difficulty encoding the phase profile. Theand achieve multidimensional control of light fields through their birefringence. This technology is considered a key enabler for the development of next-generation photonic integrated platforms.

This research was made possible by our proposed mechanism of joint local-global phase control, allowing us not only to modulate the radial phase gradient, but also to facilitate the encoding of more complex, non-diffracting optical fields. The work isFigure 2.
