Abstract

In this work we report the first realization of odd dark beams of finite length under controllable initial conditions. The mixed edge-screw phase dislocations are obtained by reproducing binary computer-generated holograms. Two effective ways to control the steering of the beams are analyzed experimentally and compared with numerical simulations.
