Optical vortex knots and links via holographic metasurfaces

Vortices arise in many natural phenomena as dark points of total destructive interference. Sometimes they form continuous lines and even enclosed loops with knotted or linked topologies in three spatial dimensions. Since the mathematical topology was introduced into physics, from hydrodynamics, cond...
