Twisted Gaussian Schell States in Quantum Optics: Twist-Assisted Nonclassicality and Entanglement
Fabricio Toscano, G. Cañas, A. Z. Khoury +2
We introduce the Twisted Gaussian Schell (TGS) state, a two-mode mixed Gaussian state defined as the quantum-optical analog of the Twisted Gaussian Schell-model beam of classical p…

Second-order moment equivalence of twisted Gaussian Schell model beams and orbital angular momentum eigenmodes
T. Ferreira, G. Santos, S. Ayala +5
We show that the covariance matrix of any cylindrically symmetric coherent orbital angular momentum (OAM) eigenmode with quantum number takes a universal form depending only…

Experimental Investigation of Twist Conservation in Nonlinear Optical Three-Wave Mixing
Gustavo H. dos Santos, André L. S. Santos Junior, Marcos Gil de Oliveira +7
We conduct an experimental investigation into the conservation of the twist phase in Twisted Gaussian Schell Model (TGSM) beams during both up- and down-conversion three-wave mixin…
