Optical vortices with large orbital momentum: generation and interference.
We demonstrate a method for generation of beams of light with large angular momenta. The method utilizes whispering gallery mode resonators that transform a plane electromagnetic wave into high order Bessel beams. Interference pattern among the beams as well as shadow pictures induced by the beams are observed and studied.
متن کاملControlling the orbital angular momentum of high harmonic vortices
Optical vortices, which carry orbital angular momentum (OAM), can be flexibly produced and measured with infrared and visible light. Their application is an important research topic for super-resolution imaging, optical communications and quantum optics. However, only a few methods can produce OAM beams in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) or X-ray, and controlling the OAM on these beams remains ch...
متن کاملOrbital Angular Momentum Spectrum Measurement of Ultra-broadband Optical Vortices Based on Field Reconstruction
During the last decade, an optical vortex (OV) has widely drawn attention since it refers to a unique fact that the spatial phase of an electromagnetic wave changes linearly, at its cross-section, with the azimuthal angle φ around the center point, named singularity point where there is no field distribution [1]. This special property of phase profile is described by a factor of exp(ilφ), where...
متن کاملGeometrical optics of beams with vortices: Berry phase and orbital angular momentum Hall effect.
We consider propagation of a paraxial beam carrying the spin angular momentum (polarization) and intrinsic orbital angular momentum (IOAM) in a smoothly inhomogeneous isotropic medium. It is shown that the presence of IOAM can dramatically enhance and rearrange the topological phenomena that previously were considered solely in connection to the polarization of transverse waves. In particular, ...
متن کاملIdentifying Orbital Angular Momentum of Vectorial Vortices with Pancharatnam Phase and Stokes Parameters
In this work, an explicit formula is deduced for identifying the orbital angular moment (OAM) of vectorial vortex with space-variant state of polarization (SOP). Different to scalar vortex, the OAM of vectorial vortex can be attributed to two parts: 1. the azimuthal gradient of Pancharatnam phase; 2. the product between the azimuthal gradient of orientation angle of SOP and relevant solid angle...
