This paper demonstrates the use of strong light-matter coupling to create and control phase singularities, offering a new application for strong coupling and a simplified approach to manipulating phase singularities. The researchers utilize cavity-free strong coupling in a thin film of organic photochromic molecules to generate these singularities, achieving all-optical control through photochemical reactions.
