提出了一种分析光场轨道角动量的方法。我们没有使用共轭对角-角动量的正则形式,而是通过沿两个正交轴的两个独立谐振子的叠加来模拟后一个变量。通过用标准维格纳函数描述每个振子,我们通过变量的一致变化推导出轨道角动量的综合图像。我们将此方法与以前的方法进行比较,并在一些相关示例中展示此方法的工作原理。
We set forth a method to analyze the orbital angular momentum of a light field. Instead of using the canonical formalism for the conjugate pair angle-angular momentum, we model this latter variable by the superposition of two independent harmonic oscillators along two orthogonal axes. By describing each oscillator by a standard Wigner function, we derive, via a consistent change of variables, a comprehensive picture of the orbital angular momentum. We compare this with previous approaches and show how this method works in some relevant examples.
