Orbital angular momentum has the potential to transfer, manipulate and store information. They are made from the orbital angular momentum of electrons orbiting their atomic nucleus – and the study of ...

We live and die by data these days. Data rates and latencies are everything, with data centers and chips designed to maximize communication speeds. The hero in the world of data is the optical fiber.

Monopoles of orbital angular momentum (OAM) are a tantalizing prospect for orbitronics because OAM is uniform in all directions. This would mean that information flows could be generated in any ...

Recently, National Science Review published online the research results on three-dimensionally oriented orbital angular momentum of light from Professor Qiwen Zhan's team at the University of Shanghai ...

Optical holography is a powerful method for recording and reconstructing complete optical field information, including intensity and phase. It has found extensive applications in various fields, such ...

Angular momentum is a fundamental quantity in physics that describes the rotational motion of objects. In quantum physics, it encompasses both the intrinsic spin of particles and their orbital motion ...

Six photons: physicists in China have entangled photons in terms of polarization, position and orbital angular momentum. (Courtesy: iStock/CopterAnansak) Physicists in China have fully entangled 18 ...
