Orbital Angular Momentum for Communications

In recent years it has been recognized that there is another angular momentum associated with a coherent light beam called orbital angular momentum (OAM) which can be any integer. The ability to reliably create and detect such states holds great potential for communications using electromagnetic waves, both in free space and in optic fibres.

Our speaker will talk about the theoretical ideas behind this new technology, as well as a few practical aspects and uses in communications. 

Speaker: Dr Bill Moran, currently serving as Professor of Defence Technology in the University of Melbourne
