Radiation of Optical Angular Momentum by a Dipole Source inside a Magneto-optical Environment

Optics 2022-12-28 v1

Abstract

Radiation of electromagnetic energy by electric or magnetic multipole sources can be modified by their local environment. In this work we demonstrate that a magneto-optical environment of an unpolarized dipole source induces the radiation of angular momentum into space. This radiation benefits from Purcell-enhancement.
