In the early 1900s, Poynting recognized that a particle, such as a photon, can carry SAM, which has only two possible states, i.e., clockwise and anticlockwise circular polarization states. However, only fairly recently, in 1992, Allen et al. discovered that photons with helical phase fronts can carry OAM, which has infinite orthogonal states. In the past two decades, the OAM-carrying beam, due to its unique features, has gained increasing interest from many different research communities, including physics, chemistry, and engineering. Its twisted phase front and intensity distribution have enabled a variety of applications, such as micromanipulation, laser beam machining, nonlinear matter interactions, imaging, sensing, quantum cryptography and classical communications. This book aims to explore novel insights of OAM beams. It focuses on state-of-the-art advances in fundamental theories, devices and applications, as well as future perspectives of OAM beams. 610 $aradio frequency 610 $amulti-input multi-output 610 $aphotonic lantern 610 $auniform circular array 610 $aturbulence mitigation 610 $astate of polarization 610 $along period fiber grating 610 $aMIMO 610 $afrequency-domain 610 $areceiver 610 $a28 GHz 610 $ametasurfaces 610 $alight-matter interactions 610 $adielectric lens 610 $afree-space optical communications 610 $ahelicity 610 $aorbital angular momentum multiplexing 610 $aOAM 610 $aorbital angular momentum 610 $asubwavelength digital gratings 610 $ananofabrication 610 $atime-gated frequency-shift interpolation 610 $asilicon metasurfaces 610 $aphase mode 610 $areactive ion etching 610 $adual symmetry 610 $abi-isotropic media 610 $amode selective coupler 610 $atwisted waves 610 $aphotonics lantern 610 $apseudo-Doppler 610 $achirality 610 $aOAM-MIMO 610 $aPoincare? sphere 610 $aelectron beam lithography 610 $aPancharatnam-Berry optical elements 610 $apolarization division multiplexing 610 $amode division multiplexing 610 $anonlinear optics 610 $ainterpolation 610 $amicrostructure optical fiber 610 $atunable OAM 610 $astructured light 700 $aPan$b Zhongqi$01787322 702 $aYue$b Yang 702 $aHuang$b Hao 702 $aRen$b Yongxiong 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367563503321 996 $aNovel insights into orbital Angular Momentum Beams$94320545 997 $aUNINA
