Optical vortex with a helical wavefront carries an annular spatial form and an orbital angular momentum (OAM), characterized by a topological charge ℓ, arising from its helical wavefront.
In this presentation, we will discribe, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, that the optical vortex can spin a laser induced cyanobacteria-waveguide due to the OAM transfer effects.
