Optical pum** of orbital angular momentum of light in cold cesium atoms

JWR Tabosa, DV Petrov - Physical review letters, 1999 - APS
We present experimental results on the transfer of the orbital angular momentum of light to a
system of cold cesium atoms. A nondegenerate four-wave mixing process was used as an …
