説明

<jats:title>From spins to spirals</jats:title> <jats:p> The polarization state of light can be used in imaging applications and optical communications. Light can also be structured into vortices that carry optical angular momentum, which can be used for micromanipulation and enhancing the capacity of optical communication channels. Devlin <jats:italic>et al.</jats:italic> present a metasurface converter for optical states that transforms polarization states into optical angular momentum states. The coupling between arbitrary spin and optical angular momentum states of light in a compact planar structure may find applications in producing complex structured light fields. </jats:p> <jats:p> <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> , this issue p. <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="doi" issue="6365" page="896" related-article-type="in-this-issue" vol="358" xlink:href="10.1126/science.aao5392">896</jats:related-article> </jats:p>
