When Light Takes Structure: A New Twist in Modern Optics

Structured light is reshaping the frontiers of modern optics, opening pathways to explore novel physical phenomena and enabling innovative applications. In this talk, I will introduce the fundamental principles behind structured light, present the state-of-the-art methods for its generation and control and highlight representative applications that demonstrate its transformative impact across science, technology and engineering.

About the Speaker

Dr. Rosales-Guzmán obtained his PhD in 2015 from ICFO – The Institute of Photonic Sciences. He subsequently joined the Structured Light Laboratory, led by Prof. Andrew Forbes, at the University of the Witwatersrand (South Africa) as a research fellow. From 2018 to 2022, he held a faculty position at the Harbin University of Science and Technology (China), and since 2020 he has been a principal investigator at CIO-Centro de Investigaciones en Óptica (Mexico). He has published over 100 research articles and three books. His outstanding contributions to the field of structured light earned him the 2023 SPIE Early Career Achievement Award.
