Angular momentum of light refers to the property that describes the rotational motion of electromagnetic waves, such as light. Just like physical objects can have angular momentum due to their mass and rotation, light can also carry angular momentum, even though it is massless. There are two types of angular momentum associated with light: 1. **Spin Angular Momentum:** This is related to the polarization of light.
