A solid-state optical device supports a Helicoidal Standing Wave along an optical axis of the device. A holographic recording technique utilizes the Weigert effect to generate a spatially rotating axis of optical anisotropy in a longitudinal direction of the optical axis. As a result, a Helicoidal Standing Wave propagating in a direction of the optical axis, and having a wavelength substantially corresponding to a period of the helix, is supported by the optical device.
