Measuring the orbital angular momentum of a single photon.
We propose an interferometric method for measuring the orbital angular momentum of single photons. We demonstrate its viability by sorting four different orbital angular momentum states, and are thus able to encode two bits of information on a single photon. This new approach has implications for entanglement experiments, quantum cryptography and high density information transfer.
متن کاملPolarization control of single photon quantum orbital angular momentum states.
The orbital angular momentum of photons, being defined in an infinite-dimensional discrete Hilbert space, offers a promising resource for high-dimensional quantum information protocols in quantum optics. The biggest obstacle to its wider use is presently represented by the limited set of tools available for its control and manipulation. Here, we introduce and test experimentally a series of sim...
متن کاملPhoton Orbital Angular Momentum in Astrophysics
Astronomical observations of the orbital angular momentum of photons, a property of electromagnetic radiation that has come to the fore in recent years, have apparently never been attempted. Here, I show how measurements of this property of photons have a number of astrophysical applications. Subject headings: Instrumentation: Miscellaneous – Masers – ISM: General – Extraterrestrial Intelligenc...
متن کاملPhoton orbital angular momentum: problems and perspectives
Electromagnetic fields can carry, besides energy, linear and angular momentum. The exchange of linear momentum with matter produces forces due to radiation pressure. That comet tails point away from the Sun because light carries linear momentum was first suggested by Kepler. A complete account of radiation pressure was developed by Poynting in 1905 in terms of electromagnetic linear momentum de...
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...
