    Abstract
    A single electromagnetic plane-wave propagating in free space possesses neither spin nor orbital angular momentum. Both types of angular momentum arise from interference between pairs of plane-waves having the same temporal frequency ω but differing k-vectors k1 and k2. While it is fairly straightforward to evaluate a wavepacket’s spin and orbital angular momenta in the (k, ω) continuum by means of Fourier transformation, obtaining the same results by discretizing the (k, ω) space, then attempting to approach the continuum limit via an infinite enlargement of the spatial volume under consideration, is fraught with danger. © 2023 SPIE.

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
