Quantum X waves with orbital angular momentum in nonlinear dispersive media

, , and . Journal of Optics, 20 (6): 065201 (2018)

Abstract

We present a complete and consistent quantum theory of generalised X waves with orbital angular momentum in dispersive media. We show that the resulting quantised light pulses are affected by neither dispersion nor diffraction and are therefore resilient against external perturbations. The nonlinear interaction of quantised X waves in quadratic and Kerr nonlinear media is also presented and studied in detail.
