A similar interference effect also appears in a closely related property of light known as orbital angular momentum, which allows light to rotate particles around the optical axis, i.e., make them ...

Quantum entanglements between integer-order and fractional-order orbital angular momentums (OAMs) have been previously discussed. However, the entangled nature of arbitrary rational-order OAM has ...

A breakthrough that’s turning heads in the scientific community: A young research team from Würzburg has experimentally demonstrated a quantum tornado for the first time by refining an established ...
