Extraction of Bend-Resolved Modal Basis in Deformed Multimode Fiber
Lubomir Skvarenina, Stephen Simpson, Yashar Alizadeh +1
Mode mixing in optical fibers caused by mechanical bending induces perturbations that distort the spatial field profile of coherent beams as they propagate through few-mode or mult…
Using all transverse degrees of freedom in quantum communications based on a generic mode sorter
Yiyu Zhou, Mohammad Mirhosseini, Stone Oliver +5
The dimension of the state space for information encoding offered by the transverse structure of light is usually limited by the finite size of apertures. The widely used orbital a…
Efficient solar collection beyond the etendue limit
Rakan E. Alsaigh, Ralf Bauer, Martin P. J. Lavery
Photovoltaics (PV) are a versatile and compact route to harness solar power. One critical challenge with current PV is persevering the optimal panel orientation angle with respect…
Experimental study of quantum thermodynamics using optical vortices
R. Medeiros de Araújo, T. Häffner, R. Bernardi +6
Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and quantum information theory are interrelated research fields witnessing an increasing interest, both theoretical and experimental. This is manly d…
Measuring an electron beam's orbital angular momentum spectrum
incenzo Grillo, Amir H. Tavabi, Federico Venturi +12
Quantum complementarity states that particles, e.g. electrons, can exhibit wave-like properties such as diffraction and interference upon propagation. \textit{Electron waves} defin…
Efficient Sorting of Free Electron Orbital Angular Momentum
Benjamin J. McMorran, Tyler R. Harvey, Martin P. J. Lavery
We propose a method for sorting electrons by orbital angular momentum (OAM). Several methods now exist to prepare electron wavefunctions in OAM states, but no technique has been de…

Mitchell A. Cox, Carmelo Rosales-Guzmán, Martin P. J. Lavery +2
Free-space optical communication with spatial modes of light has become topical due to the possibility of dramatically increasing communication bandwidth via Mode Division Multiple…
4 X 20 Gbit/s mode division multiplexing over free space using vector modes and a q-plate mode (de)multiplexer
Giovanni Milione, Martin P. J. Lavery, Hao Huang +8
Vector modes are spatial modes that have spatially inhomogeneous states of polarization, such as, radial and azimuthal polarization. They can produce smaller spot sizes and stronge…
Divergence of an orbital-angular-momentum-carrying beam upon propagation
Miles J. Padgett, Filippo M. Miatto, Martin Lavery +2
There is recent interest in the use of light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) for creating multiple channels within free-space optical communication systems. One limit…
Performance Metrics and Design Parameters for a Free-space Communication Link Based on Multiplexing of Multiple Orbital-Angular-Momentum Beams
Guodong Xie, Long Li, Yongxiong Ren +10
We study the design parameters for an orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexed free-space data link. Power loss, channel crosstalk and power penalty of the link are analyzed in t…
High-dimensional quantum cryptography with twisted light
Mohammad Mirhosseini, Omar S. Magaña-Loaiza, Malcolm N. O'Sullivan +6
Quantum key distributions (QKD) systems often rely on polarization of light for encoding, thus limiting the amount of information that can be sent per photon and placing tight boun…
Interface between path and OAM entanglement for high-dimensional photonic quantum information
Robert Fickler, Radek Lapkiewicz, Marcus Huber +3
Photonics has become a mature field of quantum information science, where integrated optical circuits offer a way to scale the complexity of the setup as well as the dimensionality…
