Abstract
- We propose and generate a new class of structured light fulfilling quantum-like coherent states based on a set of circular Airy vortex modes. Such coherent-state wave packets possess strong focus with both radial and angular self-accelerations, which exploit more general 3D inhomogeneous velocity control with global spatial symmetry of multilayer rotation akin to galactic kinematics, as termed galaxy waves. Galaxy waves are endowed with new degrees of freedom to control strong focusing and acceleration of 3D structured light, promising numerous applications in optical trapping, manufacturing, and nonlinear optics.
