A Higher-order poincaré ellipsoid representation for non-cylindrical vector beams

Abstract The Higher-Order Poincaré Sphere (HOPS) provides a powerful geometrical tool for representing vector beams as points on the surface of a unitary sphere. Since a particular position on the surface represents any spatial mode regardless of its shape, this representation cannot be used to disc...
