The left side represents the concept of half-integer angular momentum in the author’s work. The electric field inside the resonator (middle) depends on both the field envelope phase (top) and the angular momentum phase (bottom), each requiring two round trips to return to its original value. A light-carrying half-integer angular momentum can be created by …
