The spatial structure of light with Orbital Angular Momentum, or twisted light, closely resembles the shape of atomic wave functions. It could therefore make symmetry-forbidden transitions possible in quantum dots, or artificial atoms. However, the vanishing intensity in the center of an OAM beam usually makes this effect weak. Here we show a plasmonic approach to focus OAM light to subwavelength dimensions using metallic nanoscale resonant optical antennas. This allows to increase the field intensity of OAM light at the typical dimensions of quantum dots to an intensity larger than a regular Gaussian beam, which corresponds to increasing the interaction strength by 3 orders of magnitude.
