Abstract
We report on the generation of tunable structured light fields endowed with various sets of phase singularities from a single topological defect in a nematic liquid crystal mesophase. The experimental demonstration relies on the use of electric field-induced nonsingular topological defects called "umbilics."Year: 2012 PMID: 22463574 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.087801
