Spin Angular Momentum and Polarization of Light

Spin angular momentum of photons and the associated polarization of light has been known for many years.

Recent Developments in Light Beams

However, it is only over the last decade or so that physically realizable laboratory light beams have been used to study the orbital angular momentum of light.

Comparison of Angular Momenta

In many respects, orbital and spin angular momentum behave in a similar manner, but t
