Deskripsi

In this paper, explicit expressions for the momentum and angular momentum from the Noether's theorem (ab initio) are obtained. These expressions contain squared modules of the coefficients of a guided mode expansion, weighted by the phase singularity orders present. The expressions obtained are useful for quantizing the electromagnetic field in a waveguide.
