Structured light - structured atoms — •Sonja Franke-Arnold — Physics and Astronomy, University of Glasgow, UK

Research on complex vector light has recently seen an explosion of activity, both from a fundamental and applied viewpoint. It mimics properties of quantum entanglement, can be focused below the conventional diffraction limit, and allows us to explore the vectorial nature of light-matter interactions.

In this talk, I will present our techniques to generate and analyse arbitrary vector fields and demonstrate their use in applications ranging from one-shot polarimetry to the detection of magnetic field alignment in an ``atomic compass''.
