Light can carry both spin and orbital angular momentum. The orbital angular momentum arises from "twisted" phasefronts which can be made visible in interferograms. Still a young research area, the investigation of orbital angular momentum of light now encompasses areas as diverse as testing of quant

The cover image shows the transformation optics quality factor for several plasmonic materials. For transformation optical devices, the quality factor is inversely proportional to the plasmonic losses in the material at the crossover frequency. The crossover frequency for GZO, ITO, Ag, and AZO are 1
