Optical 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 کاملGeneralized ray optics and orbital angular momentum carrying beams
In classical optics theWolf function is the natural analogue of the quantumWigner function and like the latter itmay be negative in some regions.We discuss the implications this negativity has on the generalized ray interpretation of free-space paraxial wave evolution. Important examples include two classes of beams carrying optical orbital angularmomentum—Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) andBessel beams...
متن کاملSpin and Orbital Angular Momentum Distribution Functions of the Nucleon
A theoretical prediction is given for the spin and orbital angular momentum distribution functions of the nucleon within the framework of an effective quark model of QCD, i.e. the chiral quark soliton model. An outstanding feature of the model is that it predicts fairly small quark spin fraction of the nucleon ∆Σ ≃ 0.35, which in turn dictates that the remaining 65% of the nucleon spin is carri...
متن کاملDo waves carrying orbital angular momentum possess azimuthal linear momentum?
All beams are a superposition of plane waves, which carry linear momentum in the direction of propagation with no net azimuthal component. However, plane waves incident on a hologram can produce a vortex beam carrying orbital angular momentum that seems to require an azimuthal linear momentum, which presents a paradox. We resolve this by showing that the azimuthal momentum is not a true linear ...
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...
