Detecting Gravitational Waves by Twisted Light - Dipole Interaction of Photons and Gravitational...
Motivated by the next generation of gravitational wave (GW) detectors, westudy the wave mechanics of a twisted light beam in the GW perturbed spacetime.We found a new gravitational dipole interaction of photons and gravitationalwaves. Physically, this interaction is due to coupling between the angularmomentum of twisted light and the GW polarizations. We demonstrate that for thehigher-order Laguerre-Gauss (LG) modes, this coupling effect makes...
These are free preprint on the topic, I hadn't run across it till.a few days ago, though using such a property for info transmission has a rationale I can of course immediately perceive....
