A Novel Atom-Twisting Method Proposed by ITMO Researchers
…nt, the team calculated how the wave function of a photon, i.e. its twisted structure, interacts with an electron in a hydrogen-like atom. The experiment showed that an atom gains the twisted state of a photon when the latter is absorbed. “Given that the quantum state of light is a form of data, it should be preserved loss-free in case of any light-system intera…
