An Upper Bound on the Rate of Information Transfer in Optical Vortex Beams

Matt M Coles

Light endowed with orbital angular momentum, commonly termed optical vortex light, has an azimuthal phase indexed by the orbital quantum number . In contrast to the two basis st…

Challenges concerning the discriminatory optical force for chiral molecules

David S. Bradshaw, Matt M. Coles, David L. Andrews

In response to arXiv:1506.07423v1 we discuss the authors work, and our own, on proposed schemes aiming to achieve a discriminatory optical force for chiral molecules.

Directions In Optical Angular Momentum

Matt M. Coles, David L. Andrews

For paraxial and non-paraxial light, numerous measures of electromagnetic attribute are expressible in terms of photon annihilation and creation. Accordingly, energy, angular momen…

Chirality and angular momentum in optical radiation

Matt M. Coles, David L. Andrews

This paper develops, in precise quantum electrodynamic terms, photonic attributes of the "optical chirality density", one of several measures long known to be conserved quantities…
