Abstract
- Two vector operators aimed at shifting angular momentum quantum number l in spherical harmonics |lm>, primarily proposed by Prof. X. L. Ka in 2001, are further studied. For a given magnetic quantum number m, specific states |lm> in spherical harmonics with the lowest angular momentum quantum numbers l are obtained and the state with minimum angular momentum quantum number in whole set of the spherical harmonics is |0,0>. How to use these states to generate whole set of spherical harmonics is illustrated.<br />Comment: 7 pages, no figure
