چکیده
Polarization measurement has been used for many optical applications in science and technology. Herein, we adopt a reliable method to measure the polarization parameters of incident light, including principal axis, chirality ellipticity based on superposition two orthogonal vortex beams with non-integer topological charges (TCs). All three can be measured analyzed by interference pattern produced ${\ell }_1 = 1$ }_2{\rm{ 0}}{\rm{.5}}$ . The relationship between axis is deduced theoretically. results agree theoretical formulation very well. advantages simplicity make this have good application prospect measurement, communication, micro-particles manipulation quantum science.

Electron vortex beams with high quanta of orbital angular momentum.
Electron beams with helical wavefronts carrying orbital angular momentum are expected to provide new capabilities for electron microscopy and other applications. We used nanofabricated diffraction holograms in an electron microscope to produce multiple electron vortex beams with well-defined topological charge. Beams carrying quantized amounts of orbital angular momentum (up to 100ħ) per electr...
متن کاملOptical communications using orbital angular momentum beams
Orbital angular momentum (OAM), which describes the “phase twist” (helical phase pattern) of light beams, has recently gained interest due to its potential applications in many diverse areas. Particularly promising is the use of OAM for optical communications since: (i) coaxially propagating OAM beams with different azimuthal OAM states are mutually orthogonal, (ii) inter-beam crosstalk can be ...
متن کاملUndulator Photon Beams with Orbital Angular Momentum
Abstract Photons carrying an orbital angular momentum (OAM) are present in the off-axis radiation of higher harmonics of helical undulators. Usually, the purity and visibility of OAM carrying photons is blurred by the electron beam emittance. However, high brightness OAM beams are expected in Ultimate Storage Rings (USRs) and FELs, and they may trigger a new class of experiments utilizing the v...

We study the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator in two and three dimensions, with particular attention to the solutions as basis states for representing their respective symmetry groups — O(2), O(3), and O(2,1). Solving the Schrodinger equation by separating variables in polar coordinates, we obtain wavefunctions characterized by a principal quantum number, the group Casimir eigenvalue, and...
متن کاملShaping optical beams with non-integer orbital-angular momentum: a generalized differential operator approach.
We introduce an analytical procedure to construct an optical beam with an arbitrary value of orbital-angular momentum (OAM) by keeping the flexibility of shaping its transverse intensity distribution without changing its OAM. We apply the general theory of fractional differential operators in Fourier domain to derive general expressions for the OAM content in the beam and find the relevant para...
