Trans-spectral transfer of orbital angular momentum and creation of an ultra high density cold atom trap

In recent years there has been great interest in the applications of the interaction of the phase and intensity of laser light in atomic vapours. The generation of light beams with arbitrary phase and intensity patterns can now be easily achieved by using Spatial Light Modulators (SLMs). The transfo...
