The recently so-called deviation scale [C. M. Mabena et al., Phys. Rev. A 99, 013828 (2019)] bridges the connection between the result of the infinitesimal propagation equation (IPE) prediction and that of the single phase screen (SPS) approximation. Thanks to the multiple phase screen (MPS) approach, in this paper we elaborate the physical meaning of the deviation scale: the spatial accumulation of slight intensity modulation of incident orbital angular momentum (OAM) carrying beam splits the original vortex into multiple individual vortices with a topological charge (TC) of +1 and re-generates the vortex-antivortex pairs with a TC of +1 and with a TC of -1, leading to a significant deviation between these two different results only when the disruption of this compound effect on the phase distribution of the incident OAM-carrying beam becomes more significant. Other than that, we also show that the appearance of the deviation scale cannot be predicted only by the Rytov variance, which can be predicted through the vortex-splitting ratio of the received optical field alone or with the help of the normalized propagation distance.

We introduce and experimentally demonstrate a method for measuring at the same time the mean and the variance of the photonic orbital angular momentum (OAM) distribution in any paraxial optical field, without passing through the acquisition of its en
tire angular momentum spectrum. This method hence enables one to reduce the infinitely many output ports required in principle to perform a full OAM spectrum analysis to just two. The mean OAM, in turn, provides direct access to the average mechanical torque that the optical field in any light beam is expected to exert on matter, for example in the case of absorption. Our scheme could also be exploited to weaken the strict alignment requirements usually imposed for OAM-based free-space communication.
We have experimentally studied the degradation of mode purity for light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) propagating through simulated atmospheric turbulence. The turbulence is modeled as a randomly varying phase aberration, which obeys
statistics postulated by Kolmogorov turbulence theory. We introduce this simulated turbulence through the use of a phase-only spatial light modulator. Once the turbulence is introduced, the degradation in mode quality results in cross-talk between OAM modes. We study this cross-talk in OAM for eleven modes, showing that turbulence uniformly degrades the purity of all the modes within this range, irrespective of mode number.
Orbital angular momentum associated with the helical phase-front of optical beams provides an unbounded qo{space} for both classical and quantum communications. Among the different approaches to generate and manipulate orbital angular momentum states
of light, coupling between spin and orbital angular momentum allows a faster manipulation of orbital angular momentum states because it depends on manipulating the polarisation state of light, which is simpler and generally faster than manipulating conventional orbital angular momentum generators. In this work, we design and fabricate an ultra-thin spin-to-orbital angular momentum converter, based on plasmonic nano-antennas and operating in the visible wavelength range that is capable of converting spin to an arbitrary value of OAM $ell$. The nano-antennas are arranged in an array with a well-defined geometry in the transverse plane of the beam, possessing a specific integer or half-integer topological charge $q$. When a circularly polarised light beam traverses this metasurface, the output beam polarisation switches handedness and the OAM changes in value by $ell = pm2qhbar$ per photon. We experimentally demonstrate $ell$ values ranging from $pm 1$ to $pm 25$ with conversion efficiencies of $8.6pm0.4~%$. Our ultra-thin devices are integratable and thus suitable for applications in quantum communications, quantum computations and nano-scale sensing.
As one fundamental property of light, the orbital angular momentum (OAM) of photon has elicited widespread interest. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that the OAM conversion of light without any spin state can occur in homogeneous and isotropic med
ium when a specially tailored locally linearly polarized (STLLP) beam is strongly focused by a high numerical aperture (NA) objective lens. Through a high NA objective lens, the STLLP beams can generate identical twin foci with tunable distance between them controlled by input state of polarization. Such process admits partial OAM conversion from linear state to conjugate OAM states, giving rise to helical phases with opposite directions for each focus of the longitudinal component in the focal field.
In this work we demonstrate the existence of orbital angular momentum (OAM) bright and dark supermodes in a three-evanescently coupled cylindrical waveguides system. Bright and dark supermodes are characterized by their coupling and decoupling from o
ne of the waveguides, respectively. In addition, we demonstrate that complex couplings between modes of different waveguides appear naturally due to the characteristic spiral phase-front of OAM modes in two-dimensional configurations where the waveguides are arranged forming a triangle. Finally, by adding dissipation to the waveguide uncoupled to the dark supermode, we are able to filter it out, allowing for the design of OAM mode clonners and inverters.
