Based on extended Huygens-Fresnel integral and the Rytov approximation, the average capacity of orbital angular momentum(OAM)-multiplexed Laguerre-Gaussian(LG) beam propagating through non-Kolmogorov turbulence is presented, and the analytical expression of spiral spectrum of LG beam has been deduced. The average capacity of FSO system is numerically calculated and the influence of exponent parameter, transmission height, structure constant, wavelength, outer scale and inner scale on average capacity are also analyzed in detail. Outcomes show that smaller structure constant, outer scale, higher transmission height and larger wavelength, inner scale are conducive to improve average capacity in different extent. Results acquires in this paper have potential application value in optical communication within non-Kolmogorov turbulence.展开更多

It is shown by detailed numerical illustrative examples that the number and location of composite vortices at the waist plane are variable by varying the relative phase β, amplitude ratio η, waist width ratio ξ, or off-axis distance ratio μ. The net topological charge lnet is not always equal to the sum lsum of charges of the two component beams. The motion, creation and annihilation of composite vortices take place in the free-space propagation, and the net charge during the propagation remains unchanged and equals to the net charge at the waist plane.展开更多

Holographic grating method is a convenient method of generating Laguerre-Gaussian beams and measuring their orbital angular momenta. But due to some inevitable adverse factors such as lateral displacement, angular deflection and elliptical incident profile of incident beam, the practical effectiveness should be reevaluated. This paper is devoted to the study on the influences of the abovementioned three adverse factors on the holographic grating method. The characteristics of the mode decomposition of diffractive order and the relative powers of the orbital angular momentum eigen-states are also given.展开更多

In the study, the 808 nm pump light was shaped into a double-ring structure by the CDG and matched spatially with that of an ideal LG11 mode. As a result, the laser resonator generated an LG11 vortex mode, and the laser power reached 204 mW with 14.5% slope efficiency. Also, when the cavity mirror was tilted, the laser output could switch to the LG01 vortex mode. The results showed the convenience and versatility of CDG in an annular-pumped vortex laser.展开更多
