    Abstract

    Despite more than a century of photonic advances, there still exist solutions to Maxwell?s equations that remain elusive. Now, Qiwen Zhan and colleagues demonstrate the first toroidal vortex of light, introducing twists and folds in time and space for new forms of 4D structured light.
