Abstract
We demonstrate a versatile vortex linear light bullet as a three-dimensional vortex Airy-Bessel wave packet for the first time. It combines a temporal Airy pulse with a higher order vortex Bessel beam in the spatial domain. Its non-varying feature in linear propagation is verified by three-dimensional (3D) measurements. Advanced from previously reported linear light bullets which are limited to specific materials, the vortex Airy-Bessel wave packet works as a light bullet for any material while carrying orbital angular momentum. It is believed that the versatile vortex linear light bullet is useful in many applications such as nano-lithography, nano-surgery, etc. The study of controlled collisions between optical vortices in the time domain is also reported in this thesis.
