HORN ANTENNA GENERATING ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD WITH ORBITAL ANGULAR MOMENTUM

Circular Polarized Patch Antenna Generating Orbital Angular Momentum

The recent extension of the orbital angular momentum (OAM) concept from optical to microwave frequencies has led some researchers to explore how well established antenna techniques can be used to radiate a non-zero OAM electromagnetic field. In this frame, the aim of the present paper is to propose a new approach to generate a non-zero OAM field through a single patch antenna. Using the cavity ...

Generation of High-Purity Millimeter-Wave Orbital Angular Momentum Modes Using Horn Antenna: Theory and Implementation

Twisted electromagnetic waves, of which the helical phase front is called orbital angular momentum (OAM), have been recently explored for quantum information, high speed communication and radar detections. In this context, generation of high purity waves carrying OAM is of great significance and challenge from low frequency band to optical area. Here, a novel strategy of mode combination method...

Generation of Electromagnetic Waves with Arbitrary Orbital Angular Momentum Modes

Recently, much attention has been focused on beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) for radio communication. Here we experimentally demonstrate a planar-spiral phase plate (planar-SPP) for generating arbitrary mixed OAM beams. This proposed planar-SPP uses the concept of transmit array antenna having a perforated substrate to control the outputting phase for generating beams carrying OAM...

Generating Optical Orbital Angular Momentum with Silicon Photonic Circuits

Generating squeezed vacuum field with nonzero orbital angular momentum with atomic ensembles.

We demonstrated that by using a pump field with nonzero orbital angular momentum (OAM) in the polarization self-rotation squeezing process it is possible to generate a squeezed vacuum optical field with the matching OAM. We found a similar level of maximum quantum noise reduction for a first-order Laguerre-Gaussian pump beam and a regular Gaussian pump beam, even though the optimal operational ...
