We propose to use nonlinear optics to couple with such multipolar orders, where we can use multiple copies of electromagnetic fields to construct the required coupling fields. We will demonstrate the success of this concept.

In this talk, we discuss the mathematics of freeform surface descriptions, with emphasis on base surfaces versus freeform departures and on the use of off-axis conics as base surfaces.
