摘 要:Carbon nanotubes are explored as a means of coherently converting the orbital angular momentum of light to an excitonic form that is more amenable to quantum information *** analytical analysis,based on dynamical conductivity,is used to show that orbital angular momentum is conserved,modulo N,for a carbon nanotube illuminated by radially polarized,twisted *** result is numerically demonstrated using real-time time-dependent density functional theory which captures the absorption of twisted light and the subsequent transfer of twisted *** results suggest that carbon nanotubes are promising candidates for constructing optoelectronic circuits in which quantum information is more readily processed while manifested in excitonic form.
