Abstract

The topological properties of optical skyrmions have enormous application value in fields such as optical communication and polarization sensing. At present, research on optical skyrmions focuses primarily on the topological principles of skyrmions and their applications. Nonetheless, extant research devoted to skyrmion-array manipulation remains meager. The sole manipulation scheme has a limited effect on the movement direction of the whole skyrmion array. Based on the interference principle of the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) wave, we propose an upgraded scheme for the tailoring of electric-field optical skyrmions. A distributed Gaussian-focused spots array is deployed. Unlike the existing manipulation, we customize the phase of the light source to be more flexible, and we have discovered optical-skyrmion tailoring channels and shaping channels. Specifically, we move the skyrmions within the channel in both directions and manipulate the shape of the topological domain walls to achieve customized transformation. This work will evolve towards a more flexible regulatory plan for tailoring optical-skyrmion arrays, and this is of great significance for research in fields such as optical storage and super-resolution microimaging.
