Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of vortex light field in the technical field of optics, in particular to a device for coherent demultiplexing of orbital angular momentum and a method for separation and detection. Background technique [0002] Orbital angular momentum is an important physical quantity in classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. The angular momentum of particles includes orbital angular momentum (OAM) and spin angular momentum. OAM is often related to spatial distribution. In 1992, Allen first discovered that the helical phase beam has OAM, and this type of beam has a phase factor of exp(ilθ), where l represents the topological charge, θ is the angular component, and each photon carries OAM, In order to reduce Planck's constant, since theoretically l has an infinite orthogonal interval, and beams with different l values ​​are orthogonal to each other, OAM is introduced into optical communication as a new degree of freedom, which ...
