Light Wave

Caption

A scattering-invariant mode of light is generated by sending a laser beam onto a judiciously configured spatial light modulator (see quadratic pixel array on the left). This modulated beam then propagates through free space (top) and through a strongly scattering medium (bottom) such that the pattern of the transmitted light is the same in both cases.
