Time reversed optical waves by arbitrary vector spatiotemporal field generation[M. Mounaix et al., Nat. Commun., 11 (2020)] Time-reversal allows precisely tailoring the spatio-temporal field and was originally demonstrated in acoustics. Time-reversal requires to temporally modulate the optical field independently over a large number of pixels, which is challenging in optical experiments. In the present paper, the authors developed a system allowing the modulation of the optical field spectrally and spatially over a 2d array. Harnessing this new tool, they perform a time-reversal experiment to focus and shape the optical field temporally and spatially through a multimode fiber. |

Time reversed optical waves by arbitrary vector spatiotemporal field generationMickael Mounaix, Nicolas K. Fontaine, David T. Neilson, Roland Ryf, Haoshuo Chen, Juan Carlos Alvarado-Zacarias and Joel CarpenterThis video published on J. Carpenter Youtube Channel explained the details of the experiment of this paper [Mounaix et al., arxiv, 1909.07003, (2019)]. The authors use spatial and spectral shaping with a spatial light modulator to achieve spatio-temporal focusing of light by time-reversal through a multimode fiber. |
