Spin-orbit interactions of a circularly polarized vortex beam in paraxial propagation
Abstract:
Spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) of circularly polarized beam and circularly polarized vortex beam during paraxial propagation in a radial gradient-index (GRIN) fiber are analyzed using the generalized Huygens-Fresnel principle and the GRIN fiber's ABCD matrix. SAM is only associated with polarized light helicity and OAM is only associated with topological charge m. SAM and OAM do not crosstalk or convert between each other; SOIs did not occur at the GRIN fiber's focal plane. SOIs of partially coherent circularly polarized beam and partially coherent circularly polarized vortex beam in the GRIN fiber are also studied and show the same characteristics as the perfectly polarized beam.

Any acceleration must be produced by some force. Therefore, any force or combination of forces can cause centripetal acceleration. A few examples include the tension in the rope on a...
Propagation of Waves
Consider a scenario where a wave propagates from a string of low linear mass density to a string of high linear mass density. In such a case, the reflected wave is out of phase with respect to the incident wave, however the...

Qualitatively, any spin plus-half nucleus polarizes the spins of its electrons to the minus-half state. Consequently, the paired electron in the hydrogen–carbon bond must...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
