Anomalous transient behavior from an inhomogeneous initial optical vortex density

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Inhomogeneous optical vortex densities can be produced in stochastic optical fields by a combination of coherent and incoherent superposition of speckle fields. During subsequent propagation, the inhomogeneity in the vortex density decays away. However, the decay curves contain oscillatory features that are counterintuitive: for a short while, the inhomogeneity actually increases. We provide numerical simulations and analytic calculations to study the appearance of the anomalous features in the decay curves.
