Abstract

In this work, we propose a theoretical model for generating microwave beams with non-zero orbital angular momentum utilizing the atomic vapor medium combined with coherent control techniques. Our method involves a difference frequency generation process within a centrosymmetric medium subjected to a dc electric field, enabling frequency conversion and parametric amplification. We have developed a Controlled NOT gate based on a three-level atomic system by satisfying phase-matching conditions and ensuring the conservation of orbital angular momentum. The generation of Laguerre-Gaussian fields in the microwave domain opens up novel possibilities for advanced information processing in wireless communication and offers exciting potential for applications in quantum technologies.
