Abstract

A super class of polarized transverse vector vortex photon beams patterns are mathematically represented here, which are Majorana -like among them are the radial and azimuthal Laguerre-Gaussian, hybrid π-vector beams, and Airy beams. These optical beams are consider spin-orbit coupled beams based on OAM and SAM parts of light. A Majorana photon is a photon that is identical to its anti-photon. It has within itself both chirality, right and left-handed twist in polarization (SAM) and wavefront (OAM). Applications using Majorana photons improve optical deeper imaging, higher resolution imaging, Nonlinear Optics effects (SHG, SRS, SC), optical communication in free space and fibers, quantum computer as basic qubit, and entanglement for security.

receiving the transmitted Majorana photons with an optical receiver, thereby producing a received signal; and

processing the received signal to produce a digital image of the biological tissue sample or turbid media, wherein SC-Majorana complex vortex beams (CVV) system and SC beam are used to detect and determine the size of small particles size ‘a’ of size μm and nm, using different wavelengths from SC in angle dependence and from ratio of Forward and Backward scatterings intensity.

processing the received signal to produce a digital image of the biological tissue sample or turbid media, wherein light 300 nm to 2500 nm is used to measure nano particles from 1 μm to 1000 μm from ratio of BS to FS and from angle of scatter θ=μ/a where “a” is the size of a particle and λ is the wavelength.

3. A method for imaging and deep imaging in a biological tissue sample or turbid media, the method comprising the steps of:
