Enhanced spin orbit interaction of light in highly confining optical fibers for mode division multiplexing
Fiber designs that can that can keep up with increasing data demands are lacking. Here, the authors describe an interaction between the spin and orbital angular momenta of light which enables propagation of 24 states in a single optical fiber with low cross-talk, even in the presence of fiber pertur...
