The generation of tunably focused light at remote locations is a critical photonic functionality for a wide range of applications. Here, we present a novel concept in the emerging field of Metafibers that achieves, for the first time, fast, alignment-free, fiber-integrated spatial focus control in a…
In this study, we present an unexplored approach for remote focus manipulation using 3D nanoprinted holograms integrated on the end face of multi-core single-mode fibers. This innovative method enables precise focus control within a monolithic metafiber device by allowing light coupled into any of the…
Here, we present the concept of flat-field capillary-assisted nanoparticle tracking analysis for the characterization of fast diffusing nano-objects. By combining diffusion confinement and spatially invariant illumination, i.e., flat-fields, within a fiber-interfaced on-chip environment, ultra-long trajectories…
Dielectric metasurfaces are important in modern photonics due to their unique beam shaping capabilities. However, the standard tools for the computation of the phase and transmission through a nanopillar-based metasurface are either simple, approximating the properties of the surface by that of a single…
The generation of tailored light fields with spatially controlled intensity and phase distribution is essential in many areas of science and application, while creating such patterns remotely has recently defined a key challenge. Here, we present a fiber-compatible concept for the remote generation of…
