We propose a single phase-only optical element that transforms different orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes into localized spots at separated angular positions on a transverse plane. We refer to this element as an angular lens since it…

Quantum Zeno effect shows that frequent observations can slow down or even stop the unitary time evolution of an unstable quantum system. This effect can also be regarded as a physical consequence of the the statistical indistinguishability…

Orbital angular momentum (OAM) entanglement gives access to multiple qubit and high dimensional Hilbert spaces, but is unfortunately susceptible to disturbance, decaying in real-world noisy channels. Here, we show there is an underlying…

Twisted light has recently gained enormous interest in communication systems. Thus far, twisted light has not yet been utilized for visible light communication to transmit data. Here, by exploiting the color and orbital angular momentum…
