Compact and broad wavelength range tunable orbital angular momentum mode generator based on cascaded helical photonic
Optics Letters
|September 15, 2020
Abstract:
A compact and broad wavelength range tunable orbital angular momentum (OAM) generator was experimentally demonstrated by cascading two helical photonic crystal fibers (HPCFs) with opposite helicity, i.e., clockwise-twisted + anticlockwise-twisted HPCF. Such an OAM generator exhibited a length of approximately 9 mm and generated a high-quality OAM mode with a wavelength range of 35 nm. Moreover, the wavelength range is expected to be tuned from 17.9-51.3 nm by applying mechanical torsion.
