Scientists from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology have discovered a new type of quantum entanglement involving the total angular momentum of photons.
This breakthrough could potentially lead to the development of smaller and more powerful quantum devices, such as quantum computers and communication systems.
Until now, scientists believed a photon's angular momentum consisted of separate properties, but this research showed that in nanoscale systems, the properties combine into one: total angular momentum.
This significant discovery opens up new possibilities for manipulating light and enhancing the capabilities of quantum technologies.
