Few-cycle optical-vortex pulse generation and over-mJ intense, 27 fs optical-vortex pulse generation with programmable topological-charge control were first performed. Furthermore, the measurement of the orbital-angular-momentum spectra of ultra-broadband optical-vortex pulses with high precision was demonstrated in quasi-real time. The time-resolved nonlinear spectroscopy technique using optical vortices as a pump and a probe was developed, enabling us to evaluate the relaxation time of orbital angular momentum of the GaN exciton. In addition, chiral nanostructures of metal were first fabricated by using spin- and orbital-angular momentum controlled optical-vortex pulses.
