Measuring orbital angular momentum superpositions of light by mode transformation.
We recently reported on a method for measuring orbital angular momentum (OAM) states of light based on the transformation of helically phased beams to tilted plane waves [Phys. Rev. Lett.105, 153601 (2010)]. Here we consider the performance of such a system for superpositions of OAM states by measuring the modal content of noninteger OAM states and beams produced by a Heaviside phase plate.
متن کاملOptical orbital angular momentum.
We present a brief introduction to the orbital angular momentum of light, the subject of our theme issue and, in particular, to the developments in the 13 years following the founding paper by Allen et al. (Allen et al. 1992 Phys. Rev. A 45, 8185 (doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.45.8185)). The papers by our invited authors serve to bring the field up to date and suggest where developments may take us next...
متن کاملArbitrary coherent superpositions of quantized vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates via orbital angular momentum of light
We recently proposed a scheme for the creation of coherent superpositions of vortex states in Bose-Einstein condensates BECs using orbital angular momentum OAM states of light Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 173601 2005 . Here we discuss further technical details of the proposal, provide an alternative, time-reversalsymmetric scheme for transfer of a superposition of OAM states of light to the BEC via a p...
متن کاملSuperpositions of the Orbital Angular Momentum for Applications in Quantum Experiments
Two different experimental techniques for preparation and analyzing superpositions of the Gaussian and Laguerre-Gassian modes are presented. This is done exploiting an interferometric method on the one hand and using computer generated holograms on the other hand. It is shown that by shifting the hologram with respect to an incoming Gaussian beam different superpositions of the Gaussian and the...
متن کاملStudy on Generation of Higher Order Orbital Angular Momentum Modes and Parameters Affecting the Vortex
In this manuscript, higher-order Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) modes and parameters affecting vortex in the radiation pattern have been studied. A uniform circular array resonating at 10 GHz frequency is formed using eight identical rectangular patch antennas. Three uniform circular arrays are analyzed, simulated, and fabricated for OAM modes 0, +1, and -1 respectively. The higher-order OAM mo...
