Abstract

In this article we introduce a novel quantum state, the perfect quantum optical vortex state which exhibits a highly localised distribution along a ring in the quadrature space. We examine its nonclassical properties using the Wigner function and the negativity volume. Such a quantum state can be a useful resource for quantum information processing and communication.
