The Complex Charge Paradigm: A New Approach for Designing Electromagnetic Wavepackets

Abstract Singularities in optics famously describe a broad range of intriguing phenomena, from vortices and caustics to field divergences near point charges. The diverging fields created by point charges are conventionally seen as a mathematical peculiarity that is neither needed nor related to the...
